I just checked: if I open a jpeg then select save as, it will preselect jpeg.

Yes -- git master actually does that. It puts all the items that cannot be
saved to a particular file format in a list and shows that to the user, and
then also offers a checkbox to also save the image as a .kra.

I'm not sure if krita 3.x.x appimage before 3.1.0 final worked like this,
though. It was the first time in a long while I felt the annoyance of
constantly changing the file type from .kra to "All" when exporting a bunch of
photos (I do that all the time because >> Our cameraman always takes photos
with unwanted angles >> I must use Krita to rotate and crop them)...maybe I was
too tired today. XD

Anyway, I kinda agree with your idea you've mentioned in Comment 2. 

I think if we can make the warning like this:
1) Shows which feature(s) (layers, transparency, color depth) the current file
type doesn't support, but do not throw general infos at them, we should be
precise of WHICH FEATURE(S) so they may ADAPT & LEARN;
2) Tells user to use .kra if they want to keep those information;
Then it's OK to let Krita remember the last-used file type.

Hm, I tested with 2.9, and it looks like this has always been the case, so I'm
changing the category to wish. I'm also not totally sure it would be the right
thing to do -- it might lead to people starting krita, save one image as png,
then create a new image, add a bunch of layers, and accidentally save that as
png again. Krita 3.2 will show warnings about information loss, but even with
that, it might not be enough.
