Bug #27620	Export Resultset and Open/Save script use the same destination

Description:
The "remembered" last folder for Export Result and Open/Save a script/query share the same value.  They should be different to allow distinct locations for each operation.

I write queries and store them in a "Scripts" folder and export my results to an "Outputs" folder.  Query Browser should remember each location separately to make it easier to manage files.

How to repeat:
1- Open Query Browser
2- Enter a simple query (ie "SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMATA" )
3- Execute the query
4- Export the result set (using the File->Export Resultset... menu)
--- notice the folder where you saved the output
5- Save your query (using the File->Save As menu) to a different folder from where you exported your results in step 4.
6- Export your result set again, the saved location is where you saved your query, not where you exported to last time.

Suggested fix:
Save the last locations for Export Resultset and Open/Save separately.

Thank you for a bug report. Verified just as described.

Many thanks for writing a bug report. We are on the way to implement full functionality of MySQL Query Browser into MySQL Workbench. We won't add this feature request anymore.
