--- Comment #9 from Mike Kaganski <mikekaganski at hotmail.com> ---
The "file exists" check is a function of the dialog, being a part of the
filename choosing process. When a user decides to change a type of the
document, the previously solved "file exists" situation does not apply anymore,
and a new situation arises. It needs own iteration, and trying to be smart here
(e.g. trying to quickly check if such a file exists to decide if to ask again
or not) will bring a whole lot of new problems (is FS case sensitive? does it
impose some file name limitations like length or forbidden patterns? is it some
special FS like CMIS or WebDAV with exotic requirements?) that already solved
by specialized Save As dialogs. So clear WONTFIX IMO.
