* Set a different default extension (doable since 2.10.22 IIRC)(Preferences ➤ Image Import & Export ➤ Export file type)
* Define your own export action, and associate a hot key to it.
Thanks for the tips. Changing the default extension indeed saves one step (the slowest), so that's good.
However I didn't find anything about custom export actions, are you talking about writing a script ? I should indeed be able to reproduce the overwrite behavior (copy - flatten - save), maybe even without the confirmation dialog.

So you go from one image to the next with a single keystroke.
- Execute some post-processing
- Export the file
- Close the file window (aka "display")
- Determine the next file in sequence
- Open that file in a window
- Execute some preprocessing
Sounds nice indeed, however in my case I need to provide two different images to the script, and they have to be manually selected. But I will keep this in mind for future needs, thanks.
