A case would be to 'get documents' working for bibisect. The backwards
comp-ability of 1.3 not 'superior'. So documents do thinks slightly
differently. So need to be saved in old format.. And going to options every
time to change the setting is a pain. 

So yes, if there are multiple editions available; I really would prefer to pick
at save, not as general setting.

So the save drop down as in Options.. but then places at save dialog when using
ODT.

-> "impact on all". 
Same thing as the evolution of file format. Impacts all too. I prefer no
versions at all :-). ODT 1.1 1.2 (comp-ability mode/ extended) 1.3. How many
ODT file variants will be around :-(. Everything is called ODT. 

Same thing as changing the default format save. Can you explicit predict what
will do in backwards comp-ability? So I want to be able to explicitly save as
version X



Same way as somebody invented to format evolution's.
