My report is about the different behavior of the "Save As" menu.
It is different before and after the manipulations with AFNE checkbox.
It is different in case if you have just opened the "Save As" menu and in case
when you open the "Save As" menu, put the AFNE checkbox Off, put the AFNE
checkbox On.

In the second case, if you change field "Save as Type" (in my case) from .odt
to .docx and save file, you get a corrupted file.
In the second case, "File name" field stop changing after you pick file type in
"Save as type" field. Thus, the automatic filename extension does not work and
this results in data loss.

Your way to reproduce is different from mine in step 4.
It should be like:
Step 4: put the AFNE checkbox On
Step 5: change "Save as type" field from .odt to .docx (like on the screenshot
in Attachments )
Step 6: Save file.
