Yup, you can skip the file name dialog by making a shortcut key that runs the SaveAs command and also gives it a filename, like this:
code:
SaveAs c:\test.obj

I actually use that all the time myself to check what the export mesh is going to look like.

But it is not so good for actually writing out files since it uses the same file name every time. For using it to just look at the generated mesh I just cancel the dialog without actually writing the file.
