Yes. You can control the extension via the mime-type table,
external_editor_extension_overrides, and the base name by overriding the
function external_editor_make_base_filename.
For example:
external_editor_extension_overrides.set("text/plain", "foo");
var old_external_editor_make_base_filename =
(old_external_editor_make_base_filename ||
external_editor_make_base_filename)
function external_editor_make_base_filename (elem, top_doc) {
return "conkeror-edit-"+old_external_editor_make_base_filename(elem,
top_doc);
}
