            Bug ID: 390343
           Summary: Wishlist: Warning when saving an image would reduce
                    the file size by over 50%
           Product: krita
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: File formats
          Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: scottpetro...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

This wishlist item came from a conversation with some game developers in my
area. 

This is the situation to try to make better. 


You have a multi layered high res file that you have been working from. You are
ready to share it, but need to shrink the image size down a lot by collapsing
layers and shrinking the image size. Before exporting it you make  some small
adjustments like sharpening and curves to help some areas pop. You like the
result so you hit Ctrl + S. 


Result: 
You just destroyed most of your working image that you have been building up.
Pain!

Expected:
A warning dialog with something like "Your file size has decreased by over 50%
since your last save. Are you sure you want to do this?" 


While someone can easily get past the warning and still lose details from their
working file, I think this might help mitigate this situation. Not sure if
anyone else comes across this situation when working. It is pretty minor, but a
nice UX touch I think.
