I've run into this UI/UX hiccup a few times now.

I went to export my .doc file as PDF, and when I went to the folder, I couldn't
find it.

It turns out that the default save location of Export to PDF is the *last*
location I exported to PDF, which happens to be an entirely different folder
from where my current file is.

I think this is unintuitive behaviour. In my view, it makes more sense for the
Save to PDF dialog to follow the same behaviour as the save as dialog. When
exporting, I clicked the "save" button quickly while expecting this behaviour,
so I didn't notice that the folder location was different from where I was
expecting.</pre>
