That sort of multipath convenience is a dying art. That there are so many ways to accomplish a task is one of the things I admire most about Windows (and to a lesser extent Linux) GUI design

Modern app design almost always forces you into the developer's wonky custom save feature, if there is even a manual save at all, and with webapps you are forced to use cloud storage (possibly with a rental fee attached) as opposed to files on your local device. It would be really nice is everyone gave me standard open/save dialog boxes with all the OS accoutrements; I can't emphasize enough just how handy it is to be able to copy/paste, or create a new folder, or even manage files/directories or even launch programs from within a standard dialog... all because it is using the same view controls that Explorer uses!
