MuseScore is doing this since a long time (years) for score names. It is doing
this since quite a while(months) for export parts. New is now that it does it
even when using save as or export which a part’s tab being the active one.
Which is good for consistency.

Maybe for Linux, but I have no problem exchanging UTF-named files (using
umlauts and even non-roman characters) between Win7 and OSX. Is it possible
these concerns are out of date? I think users might find it quite irritating to
have their part names overly mangled, especially if they use non-roman
character sets.
Finale (which is what I know best) doesn't mangle the names at all, which
yields problems if a partname contains '/'. Obviously improvement over that
behavior is required, but I question whether it is the responsibility of
developers to guarantee that a filename is portable. I would guess users would
prefer their preferred filename to portable filenames, since I would guess that
many basically never port them. Why shouldn't portability of filenames be the
responsibility of the user? (If it is really even an issue.)

what is an umlaut in a Windows filename shows up quite strange on Mac and Linux

Who says umlauts, spaces, and other stuff (e.g., Japanese kanji) are not
suitable for filenames? Certainly on Win and Mac they are perfectly acceptable
and commonplace. The characters that are not suitable are characters that
delimit folders like '/' and '\' and maybe ':', but I am guessing the number of
such characters is extremely limited and easily enough dealt with in part
extraction.

True, but those can still contain spaces , umlauts and other fancy stuff not

“Export parts” would convert to ‘proper’ sanitized filenames, same as save does
for a new score.
My PR would just do the same thing on export and save as, when the part is the
active tab.

Hi Olivier, good to read you.
Parts are not always equal to staves. One can create a part with multiple
staves. The part name can be changed in File -> Parts : "Part Title". I believe
it will be used as filename.

My PR https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/1568 should fix that. Not
with a customizable name, but with giving a sane default

Hi,
In the box Staff Properties, it would be interesting to have a new field for
the file name of the generated parts.
(I don't like spaces and special characters in file names)
