Have to say I find it slightly hard to believe thst this would be useful for the majority of our users, which would surely have to be one of the criteria for introducing such a potentially menu-cluttering feature. I rarely see users leave file manager windows open, other than the ones that they've opened to locate and open documents in the first place (and which, therefore, have most likely been saved to their final location already). Always worth experimenting with though, I guess...
