--- Comment #6 from Yousuf (Jay) Philips <philipz85 at hotmail.com> ---
Agree with JBF and Heiko that this is a file manager issue and shouldnt be
implemented in LO.

I can see the scenario where a user names a doc, e.g. Untitled1.odt, and then
wants to rename it to something else or move it to another location, without
having to use Save As which makes another copy of the file and also without
renaming it outside of LO, which would cause LO to lose the doc's location and
it being gone from the recent list location. A user would face this same
scenario in any application they use (e.g. gedit, gimp), but atleast good
desktop environments (e.g. windows, likely kde) give you access to delete a
file from the file management dialogs, so Save As would be the best option to
go with.
