Bug Description

When opening a .svg file, and exporting to bitmap without any other edit to the image, it asks to save the original file. If just closing without exporting, it (normally) doesn't.

Inkscape version 0.48.2 r9819 on Windows 7 professional.

The document is changed when exporting to bitmap because the export hints (filename, resolution) are added/updated:

Closing - not a bug.

(It allows to decide whether to save the (new/changed) export hints or not - there are situations where a user might prefer to keep the old state instead of the last used options, e.g. to not overwrite export hints used for batch exporting).

Changed in inkscape:
