thanks for this overview, good for reference.
I saw yesterday how these questions get combined in one dialog.
that is a good thing.
now that with the new spec the Export part is explicit,
I want to make one change: all those questions that can turn
up in this dialog with only one possible answer: just omit them.
with a bit of luck there are no questions and no dialog.

to answer some of the big questions in there:
no, squeezing these export options in the save dialog is not possible.
that Ignore button has to go. what has to be supported is turning
layers/channels/masks into documents, that then can be
saved/exported.
I am still tending against a "never show this again" checkbox.
even with a reset in the preferences.
