I am not a programmer but  can't you just change the title bar of the save 
dialog box (in case of new files) to say "Save As..." instead of "Please 
select where to save the file". Who can tell whether these are different 
dialog boxes or not.

Isn't it enough just to change these lines in save.c?

  if (katoob_document_get_readonly (doc))
    {
      return katoob_real_save (doc,
			       _("Please select where to save the file."),
			       KATOOB_SAVE_AS);
    }
  else
    {
      return katoob_real_save (doc,
			       _("Please select where to save the file."),
			       KATOOB_SAVE);
    }
