This is not a "bug", but I think it's worth considering.

Currently, initiating "save copy..." from ristretto:
1) opens an empty dialogue (no filename pre-filled). I think the normal behavior (at least from many applications I am used to use) is to pre-fill the name of the current file, so the user is able just to save a copy to the different location, or just slightly modify the existing name.

2) doesn't remember the last folder I saved a copy into.

These both are frustrating, because typically, I would like to use this feature to select (and copy) just some photos of a lot - e.g. from somebody's photo camera's SSD card...

Thanks for your comments and/or actions on this.
