Everyone seems to do it differently.
---
LibreOffice pops up a warning dialog that looks like this:
===============
This document may contain formatting or content that cannot be saved in the
currently selected file format "FileFormat". Use the default ODF file format to
be sure the document is saved correctly.
[ Use FileFormat ] [ Use ODF Format ]
[X] Ask when not saving in ODF format
===============
---
The GIMP (as of version 2.8), handles it entirely differently. It
differentiates between the actions "Save" and "Export", where "Save" is only
the standard file format which is guaranteed to hold all the necessary data,
and Export is for everything else.
---
The GIMP's method seems sanest to me. Make "Save" (and "Save As") force the
pcapng file format, and make "Export" handle everything else (including the
Plaintext, CSV, etc. formats it currently does). It would make sense in this
case to make "Export" launch a typical save-as style dialogue, and move all the
current "Export" items (CSV, etc.) to the file-type drop-down in that dialogue.
Thoughts?
