Why? What do /you/ use the "Retrieve as" command for (or what do you 
think it /should/ be used for)?

The way I use it, the only semantical difference to "View Revision" 
really is that I want to keep the file for a (little) bit longer, so I 
would also appreciate the "View revision"-style naming. In fact, I think 
that /ideally/ there should be a checkbox (or a two-item radio group) on 
the save dialog which optionally allows to open the saved file in its 
associated application (editor or viewer) once it is saved. OTOH 
extending a system dialog is somewhat tricky (though far from 
impossible) and the effort seems overkill for this rather seldom-used 
function, so I could live without it just as well...

Cheers,

Oliver
