Description
As far as I can tell
- when a user is working on map
a.tmxand has export toa.luaduring current session - and save-as to
b.tmx - on next export, Tiled still remember user was exporting to
a.lua, and thus overwritea.luawithout asking.
I think it's more appropriate to reset that (like Tiled would on program restart) and ask user about what filename to export to.
PS: On OS X with Tiled 0.16.1

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported sequence in Tiled: export map a.tmx to a.lua, use Save As to create b.tmx, then export again. Verify whether the previous export filename is reused and whether the next export instead asks for a destination after Save As.
