  Two options...

1) In the "Action" column you can select "Always ask", and it'll always
ask what you want to do.  I find that to be a pain.

2) mupdf does not render straight from memory.  First it saves the pdf
file to /tmp/ and renders it from there.  I believe the linux default is
to always clean up /tmp/ at every reboot (but not during restore from
hibernation).  While mupdf doesn't have a "Save as" option, you can
copy/move the file from /tmp/ manually, giving you the same effect as a
"Save as".
