In my understanding the other report requests the opposite feature (remember the last used path for 'Save a Copy as…') and your request is not a duplicate.

After bug #241135 had been filed - in Inkscape 0.47 - saving was refactored and and the path no longer stored on the level of individual files, but as global preference, persistent across sessions. An additional preference setting had been added for 'Save as…' to allow the same workflow as in older versions at the time, but this preference only affects 'Save as…' and not 'Save a copy as…' (which acts more like an export function than normal saving).

If I understand you correctly, you are asking to allow the same workflow for 'Save a Copy as…', which would mean to either extend the current setting to also affect 'Save a Copy as…' (at the moment the setting only affects 'Save as…') or add an additional setting so that the current workflow as well as your requested one are possible.
