Well, I'm one, tho I certainly do text most regularly (but don't save 
text very often, I mail it to myself to save text, or leave it marked 
unread if it's temporary).

Still, I don't particularly like the idea.  I'd much /rather/ have the 
old idea back, separate direct-save (binary, to the last or default 
location for the group) and save-as (with the usual choices).  

Several have requested it, tho I'm not sure if it's bugged.  Here, I do 
the download to cache and then batch-process saving a bunch at a time to 
subdirs, so I don't use the default save as much as some do, but I'd 
still use it some, and certainly miss it.
