** Description changed:
Save dialogs don't provide an option to automatically add extensions, so
even where some application understands one particular extension, saving
a file in it doesn't result in an extension being added.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
==
Originally noticed this in k3b, so:
- 1. Open k3b
- 2. Click "Create a New Data Project"
- 3. Click "Save"
- 4. Note that the file name does not have the ".k3b" extension
- 5. Click ok to use the default file name
- 6. Open the file manager to the save location and note the file does not
have the extension

+ 4. Note that the file name does not have the ".k3b" extension
+ 5. Click ok to use the default file name
+ 6. Open the file manager to the save location and note the file does not
have the extension
EXPECTED RESULTS
Save dialogs should at least have a checkbox providing an option to
automatically add an extension.
ACTUAL RESULTS
==
Save dialogs have no options regarding extensions and files get saved without
them unless manually added.
NOTES
=
Actually, LXQt already has code to properly manage this, but if the
application doesn't have matching code, then nothing is provided. KDE works
around this in a non-Qt-standard way with, k3b which is why it appears to work
in Kubuntu but not in Lubuntu.
+
+ There's also an additional upstream bug to allow one to toggle through the
different extensions with the File Type:
