[Help] Is there any way to prevent GIMP from closing while saving. It's my mistake, but I can't seem to remember to wait for it to save. (lemmy.world)

The save dialog closes, and in my habit-riddled mind, that means the save is complete, so I quit. Only to realize seconds later my mistake.

I hope there's some solution to this, because "just remembering" doesn't seem to work.

Yeah, except GIMP heard of The principle of least astonishment and took it as a fucking challenge. If it astonishes you by behaving in an unexpected way, it's probably a deliberate GIMP design choice who's goal is to defy your expectations.
