Note: the current behavior is OK by me. In production groups, the directories where images, files and exported files (PDF or postscript) is often different, as it help make managing thousands of files sane. Disabling this completely is a bad thing IMO and would drive production folks mad to need swtich directories or move files constnatly.

i see what you mean but imho even with the current behaviour you have to select the right path as different projects are saved into different directories or a i wrong? both variants have pros and cons of course.

i today created a project, saved to pdf and then had to move the pdf file from my previous project's directory :(

why not then adding some gui element to say: use current dir.

I agree with jo-hannes. Moreover, the doc directory would be a useful default setting. It can be changed by the user anyway. I had the same problem as Johannes with saving PDFs in another project inadvertently.
