I very much prefer the export dialog for raster export where it is in the drawer because that is literally where i carry out a huge part of my workflow (fill/stroke, alignments, doc properties, it's all in one place.
Saving to various formats is still done through transient dialogs including format specific settings just like you are describing.
But letting me intetact with the document alongside the export settings (vs being in window behind popout dialogue) just seems so much more intuitive.
I've been using inkscape for years to generate vectors for plotting and laser cutting/engraving and while it has come a long way with quality of life features, it's always been able to get the job done for me.
