            Bug ID: 357142
           Summary: "Save & Exit" is a UX pessimization
           Product: Spectacle
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: General
          Assignee: m...@baloneygeek.com
          Reporter: rula...@wp.pl

When you neither ask the user where to save the screenshot nor tell them where
you saved it, then the correct therm is "lost", not "saved".

Please don't be goddamn Firefox. Please *do ask* the user where to save the
file, or *at the very least* post a system notification telling the user where
the file was saved. Not even knowing the *filename*, searching for that saved
screenshot (without success!) took me so long that the time spent posting this
bug report is negligible in comparison.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make a screenshot with Spectacle
2. Use "Save & Exit"


Actual Results:  
Spectacle *loses* the screenshot someplace only it knows about, and exits
immediately.

Expected Results:  
Spectacle should *save* the screenshot in either specifiable or immediately
made-known location.

I expected "Save & Exit" to differ from "Save As..." *only* by sparing me the
extra click to exit Spectacle, *not* by substituting the semantics of "lose"
for that of "save".
