Note that the trunk now has a "Save As" action that saves all packets (but
currently lets you choose a file format to save to) and, after saving, makes
the saved-to file the current file, and an "Export Specified Packets" action
that lets the user select which packets to save (and lets them save all of
them), and does *not* make the resulting file the current file, so we at least
have a similar distinction to what the GIMP has.
