Or, you know, listen to your existing users. For all the bleating about professional features, they sure miss big ones like CMYK support.

Hobbling the save interface only serves to make the lighter weight workflows more difficult (because they're not glamorous for the GIMP devs) while doing zero to improve the more dev-favored workflows.
