I would be favor adding more if not all "Save As" formats to the Export menu,
but I would not be in favor of removing them from the Save As menu. One of the
strengths of OOo is that is can be used to open, edit and save documents in
multiple formats, not just its "native formats". Many users use the MS formats
as their default Save As file formats, and these should not be moved out of
Save As.
The difference to me between Save As and Export is that Save As gives the
document a new name. You can follow the Save As with a Save and that will
overwrite what you previously saved. Conversely, after an Export, you are still
working with the original document with its original name.
The issue in terms of fidelity is whether a user can save in that format, then
come back later, open the file and get back the state the existed immediately
after the Save As. If that is one of the goals for the format (even if it may
have a few bugs), then the format should remain in the Save As menu.
