I'm going to echo my support for this. The nags on saves are 
counterproductive. Further more you will get them even when you are doing 
a "Save as Copy..." that by essence is an intentional export and can cause no 
dataloss... Any export should be handled  with a nag on closing the actual 
window with the path&layer information, not on export itsself.
