    Description

      When opening a file save dialog with a file name and a selected filter, and the file extension matches one of the extensions of the selected filter, the file name should not be changed.

      The current behavior is, that the file name always gets the extension of the first file extension in the selected filter, even if another one already matches.

      See attached example.
