Currently, based on observation, not examination of code, it looks like the path from the current file is used. If the current file has no path (untitled), the project path is used. If there is no project path, the home folder is used. So an existing "workaround" to use the last used save-as path is just to not close the last saved file or keep a project file open.

Better check the code (I haven't yet either) because it doesn't make sense for this to apply to anything that already has a path, should use that as the starting point for save-as, and using the current file when it does not have a path doesn't make sense either.

When working in a project, I open and save non-project files because it's inconvenient to unload and reload projects.

Ditto. Thats really the problem with this being a preference and applying to all saves, the user wants to use a project path if its a new project file, conversely using the project is wrong for the non-project files. Can't win ☹️
