<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
Export an image before it is saved.

<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
This function should be called by all save_plugins unless they are
able to save all image formats the GIMP knows about. It takes care
of asking the user if she wishes to export the image to a format the
save_plugin can handle. It then performs the necessary conversions
(e.g. Flatten) on a copy of the image so that the image can be saved 
without changing the original image.

The capabilities of the save_plugin are specified by combining
#GimpExportCapabilities using a bitwise OR. 

Make sure you have initialized GTK+ before you call this function
as it will most probably have to open a dialog.
