            Bug ID: 403608
           Summary: SaveAs defaults to "wrong" file path
           Product: kmymoney
           Version: 5.0.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: file
          Assignee: kmymoney-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: vanquestor at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY:
When using "File > SaveAs" the offered path defaults to the last location a
file was saved to even if that path has nothing to do with origins of the
currently open file.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open file /home/Jack/MyCash1.kmy
2. Save file
3. Open file /home/Dad/PaCash2.kmy
4. Use File > SaveAs 

OBSERVED RESULT
The SaveAs path defaults to /home/Jack/

EXPECTED RESULT
The SaveAs path should default to /home/Dad/ (which is the origin of the
currently open file and the standard GUI behaviour).

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Opensuse 15.1 with Plasma 5
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.12.6
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.45.0
Qt Version: 5.9.4.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This exceptional behaviour is contrary to standard behaviour of SaveAs in other
desktop applications and consequently makes it easy to inadvertently write the
file to the wrong location (potentially overwriting identically named files
irrevocably).
