I for one really appreciate the single window mode, even if I have not had the opportunity to use it much since I am still on Fedora 16 and Gimp 2.8 only started to ship with Fedora 17. And it is not for Photoshop nostalgia, as I have never used it, but rather for the fact it simplifies the interface. Because of this I am glad they kept the traditional multi-window mode as well though, for those that need the additional options.
And I can understand the reasons behind the save and export change. One of my brothers is a big multimedia guy, and you should hear him complain about losing quality during edits, especially with audio and video software. I am pretty sure he will appreciate the change in the Gimp when I inform him about it.

Question: Wasn't GIMP looking towards GEGL and high bit depths already with 2.8?
As for the export vs save change. The way things were you had to memorise which formats would save which features. I quite like the new workflow when doing textures or involved graphics as I want to work with an in progress format and an output format simultaneously. Doing light edits is a bit of a pain though - over all I think it's an improvement but I can see why some people complain.
