I requested a Save Settings check box for the Custom Crop selection dialog some while ago, but I now think I should make the request more general and ask for such a box to be added to all dialogs that use values stored in the Initialization settings. i think this would prove useful for many people but especially so for Vista users who now find they cannot edit initialization settings with a text editor.
For maximum flexibility and least impact on existing users I would propose that the box would be checked by default in most cases. Values would then be saved automatically on exit as at present. Where values are not automatically saved at present, then the default would be to open with the box unchecked.
To protect your stored settings you could uncheck the box immediately after opening. If you want to just alter some of the settings you could do that and then uncheck the box to save them at that point. With the box unchecked any further changes would not be saved on exit. (Useful when saving the occasional grayscale image).
