Hi :) I think the op was talking about the default name. Of course the person saving the document can change from the default to something more sensible.
The default used by LO at the moment is very old-school. Files called things like Doc1, Doc2, Doc3 are even less helpful than picking the 1st 2 words. If it could be cleverer and choose the 1st 2 words of the first main heading that might be more useful. Perhaps there might be some way using the contents of the Navigator? Perhaps more than 2 words, such as using the entire 1st main title? Perhaps adding the date in yyyy-mm-dd order to the end?
