Hi, I have been using GIMP for more years than I care to remember. I don't have the knowhow to contribute anything of value to the project (and probably wouldn't have either the dedication or time if I did) but both single window mode and the export process have both made things far better. I am extremely greatfull to the developers and thank them all.

There are all kinds of folks with different habits, workflows and past experience of using similar software. Six years ago we decided that we will be catering to the needs of professionals. The new save/export separation is one of the outcomes of that decision. We've already seen that target audience likes this change. It means we did it right. Yes, it comes with the cost of parting with some of the existing users. There is nothing horrible about it. It happens all the time. There are other apps people can use. There's no need to turn this into a drama.
