Well, the "overwritten file" problem should not a hard one to solve...
it's not really that hard to use a different filename if that file
exists (of course there's a potential race condition if the user is
trying to create another file with the exact same name at the exact same
time, but this is really not a case to code around, IMHO)

Agreed that every user would want the file in a different place, but the
best default choice is the desktop, since that's the most visible, and
is the one _least_ likely to cause the user to think that the PDF
printer did nothing.

I certainly think a notification icon or (heavens!) an file save dialog
would be best, but if you're going to put the file somewhere without
asking, put it on the desktop.
