I agree.

Interesting idea.

The problem(for me at least) is that the save operation not only saves the html
and the images/etc, but the save operation also changes the links in the html
so they point to the directory with the saved images/etc.

Doing "Save as" and then deleting the subsequently created content 
directory doesn't accomplish what I'm looking for because the image links 
have been changed.

Okay, this sounds like a good option.

Unfortunately, when I do "view -> source" and then "file -> save as", the html
source encapsulated into html before it is saved.  I end up with an html
document of my html.  bug?

I would prefer a "save only html" checkbox in the save as dialog, but maybe
I'm just an odd ball.  I would be happy with just about any method of just
saving the source right about now, though. :)
