Just re-tried this and it's working a lot better in the latest Canary! Thanks for the fixes.
One more issue I noticed though is that save prompts don't appear to add a default file extension. Using our PWA (https://editor.construct.net), create a new empty project and try saving it with Menu > Project > Save as > Save as single file. This uses showSaveFilePicker() passing an option like this: "types": [{ "description": ..., "accept": { "application/x-construct3-project": [".c3p"] } }] On Windows in the save prompt, type 'test' as the filename and save in the Documents folder, and it saves a file named 'test.c3p' (including the specified .c3p file extension). On Android if you do this it saves a file named 'test' with no file extension, whereas I expected it to also include the default file extension .c3p. Otherwise the user has to explicitly type in the file extension to save a file that is correctly identified by its file extension.
