            Bug ID: 125037
           Summary: File save dialog cannot groks typed directory name
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: perlancar at gmail.com

If I type a directory name in the File Save dialog (Libreoffice might complete
it or not for me), then press Enter, a warning box opens saying the file
already exists and asking whether I wish to overwrite it. This happens
regardless of the directory name has "/" suffix, or whether the name is special
like "." or "..".

This is unintuitive and unhelpful. Libreoffice should cd to the directory
instead. Which is what other Linux applications like Kate do.
