That said, some new users might feel secure seeing visual evidence that
the appropriate file extension will automatically be added.
So perhaps, instead of a checkbox, there could just be an informational line
that the correct file ext_WILL_ be automatically used. Or even better, Why
not leave the check box in place, but always open the dialog box with it
checked by default instead of remembering it's previous state???
Just an Idea!

Update: The lady who asked for the help has been helped by those of us who
were willing to CC her because she is not a member of this mailing list. So the
problem has apparently been solved.
For those who used this thread to question the need for the "Automatic file
name extension": why don't one of you file an issue and make your suggestions there?
That is how things like this can be changed.
