It's how the platforms work, inconsistently. Windows hides the file extension
and you see foo.doc while the actual extension is .odt. On the other hand, in
case of raster graphics no one cares if a bmp file is called png because the
application detects the format not trusting on the filename. And LibreOffice is
capable of that too.
