All i would ask for is that the "Save Image" Dialog will always default

actually wanted to save in another format. Now i have to close the
dialog and to open the export dialog. This seams a little bit
overcomplicated (throw away of time).

You already mentioned habit. Having such an option would allow you to 

keep what is now a bad habit (to not discern between saving the work 

and exporting), instead of forming a new, productive one.

I doubt that this will work for me since I'm not only working with Gimp. 

I also work with many other programs that don't follow this pattern. If 

thats good or not isn't the real issue. It makes Gimp stand out and also 

in some aspect a pain to use, especially if you worked with another 

program and now opened Gimp for a small correction.
