Ha! I tried this and got an entertaining result:

Entering *.* did nothing, entering *.*  simply save the file to "*.*"

Same for "*.xxx" or "*.svg" etc.

Anyway changing the filter to a specific name isn't what I want - I want to be
able to see multiple file types and to change the filter arbitrarily. If I'm
saving as another format I usually want to see the same file in the original
format in the list.

If you use the file dialog of LibreOffice, then you can e.g. enter *.svg into
the file name field and press the enter key. Then the file list will show all
.svg files, independent of the chosen file type filter. The same is true for
the native file dialog of Windows.

It seems the native file dialog of your Linux version has a restriction.

I'm no regular Linux user and have only Ubuntu 16 in a virtual box. I get no
files listed if the file type is set to "All Formats" although the folder is
not empty. A Linux expert should say, whether this is the usual behavior or a
bug.
