>From the perspective of a public library tech. coordinator who deploys OOo 
within the library, this would be a very nice option to be able to set in the
prefs.  We have a lot of patrons who bring in documents in various and assorted
formats, that they've worked on elsewhere, with various software.  Presumably
they will want to continue to work on the document in the other location as 
well, and so saving in the original format (whatever that was) is virtually
always the Right Thing.  Saving in native format instead is in this scenerio
actually more likely to cause data loss, in that the whole document (or, at
least, the updated version) becomes inaccessible when they take it back to 
the other computer.

I understand the underlying reasons for the warning, but in our situation 
it's more noise than signal, and I'd like to be able to turn it off.

My thinking on a "Don't ask again" checkbox is less clear.  Normally I like
those, since they're vastly more discoverable than anything in the prefs
dialog, but in this case I worry that a user might think it means don't 
ask again for this specific document.  Is it possible to word it so that
it's clear it applies to all documents, without making it so long nobody
will read it?
