There's two checkboxes at the top of the "General" settings page in the config dialog that relate to saving behavior, when there's already a dedicated "Save" page for those.
Thanks Eike, you make a good point, and this is one of the usability issues which is still open. "Remember last used Save mode": Do we actually need this? As we removed "Save & Exit", there are only two options left anyway, and recently we changed the default to "checked". Also, I cannot think of any similar radiobutton-type UI element having a separate config for making it stick or not. "Copy save location to the clipboard": In https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=390415#c5 we are wondering whether to make this more about "copy to clipboard" and less about "save location".
I would be in favor of removing the "Remember last used Save mode" checkbox, as it was mostly useful when the menu was full of items. With only two items and being checked by default... not so much.
> removing the "Remember last used Save mode" checkbox This part would make for a great junior job (should someone ask).
I've split that task out into Bug 390809.
I've posted a patch to address this bug: https://phabricator.kde.org/D14812
