For such a use-case, I would prefer to use the functionalities of the file
manager of my OS. For example, with Nautilus (Ubuntu 20.04) it is easy to
define preferred locations which are available in one click in the left panel
of the filepicker.

Saving an export path with the document is adding a personal data in a file
that will be difficult to remove if you need to provide a document without any
personal data.
Additionally, that will not solve the case where you need several different
export paths for the same document. For example, one for PDF export, one for
ePub export, one for OOXML export, etc.  

Best regards. JBF
