--- Comment #1 from Jonathan Verner <jonathan.verner at gmail.com> ---
O.K., so I looked at the source code and it seems the situation is as I
guessed. It also turns out that the 'Save Copy As' has a slight advantage over
using plain cp in two cases:

  -- the file is a temporary file (since the user typically doesn't know its
location)
  -- when the file was downloaded into a temporary file which was deleted
('Save Copy As' 
     redownloads it). 

However, I still think that to a normal user the distinction between 'Save As'
and 'Save Copy As' is not apparent and I don't really see the use-case for
'Save Copy As' (as opposed to 'Save As')
