A) The change removed pre-existing functionality. Not saying this ever worked
perfectly well.. this is going backwards, IMHO

B) Please don't use the general claim about not being a graphic manipulation
tool. I would say this is not about manipulation its about saving (but maybe
only about semantics). 
Following your line of argument, ask myself what are those filters (like
relief), those color correction tools, crop, and compress doing in LibreOffice
Suite. Those belong in the 'graphic manipulation area too (and in my perception
even more compared to setting DPI and size for save). There is simply a balance
to balance to it.

C)If you haven option to 'export to png of a selection - like a shape - you
kind of need to be able to configure Size & DPI. Shapes are not raster images.
They don't have internal DPI.. else it exports on screen DPI as fallback.

D) The internal handling is already present, it's only about UI behaviour.. As
far I see. And still think the screencast shows how the UI could function. Also
referring to the proposals at bug 115464...

I admit that the Export to Image functionality being pretty broken in general.
Based on the amount of flaws, you start assuming people barely use it (as there
not that many complains). Not sure if this the lack of interest in principle,
of people avoiding to export? 

Not flyers and posters on websites are still published in PNG format.. And Draw
kind of tool to create such stuff..
