[Gimp-user] gimp 2.8 export, after save as keeps old files name

[realbezo <forums gimpusers com>]

Hello again, does anyone have interest to solve this problem? How can i communicate with gimp developers, is 
writing on this forum not the proper way to ask something about gimp?
I think it is senseless to keep old file name for export after saving as your image with different name?
