i’m sure nobody here disrespects you. keep reading:

the only misunderstanding that happened is that you just said something like
that:

> the pdf format is really difficult, and write support for such a format is error-prone, so while there are no known issues, there might as well be some that eluded us and will bite users in the ass, which will proceed to hate us.

with th attitude “users will hate me anyway :(((” you read dotan’s comment,
which should have read like this:

> what? you know of a specific bug in poppler’s pdf writing part and didn’t report it? i’m not sure if i understood that right [note: he didn’t], but if that is the case, i’d say that was a bad decision under all imaginable circumstances.

…but both comments weren’t as clear, so you interpretted *his* misunderstanding
of *your* previous comment as personal attack.

now i hope we can return to this:

—————————————————

imho, i also think a pure save-as feature doesn’t make sense, even if the
underlying function isn’t 100% tested (because that’s not really possible)

since you decided to ship the feature anyway with crippled usability to prevent
users from shooting theirselves in the foot without knowing, i’d propose to
give those masochists of us who like to shoot themselves in the foot the
ability to do so without hassle.

TL;DR: since you added the feature, please also add the checkbox to enable
one-click-save+overwrite, and add abig warning next to it explaining why it is
there.
