Correct.  It creates an image in the Data/ folder (the image size depends on 
your DPI and the size on-page) and fills it with downloaded tiles from the 
dev server.

So any improvements to tile-rendering styles should be available immediately 
to publishers, and any osm-like tileserver can be used to make maps with

e.g. making a mapnik atlas would be a one-line change, plus asking the server 
admin's permission ;)

Hopefully dev can cope, we'll see...
