[Chameleon] save button in ExpressionBuilder

[William A. Bronsema]

I discussed this with Bart at the MUM2/OSGIS meeting, but for everyone's 
benefit:

The save button was added to allow the current list of expressions to be 
saved as metadata to the "active layer" without having to apply a 
filter/expression.

What I mean be this is that suppose the user has just created an 
extensive list of expressions for a particular layer and then needed to 
close the expression builder WITHOUT having to apply the 
filter/expression.  The only options would have been to apply the 
filter/expression (which would save the expression list) or cancel 
(which would lose the list).  By adding a save button, the user can 
create expressions without having to change the current filter or apply 
a new one.

Make sense?

Regards,
Bill
