Doesnt mean that we cant fix this issue specifically to Windows for the save
dialog, as we have users who are using LO cross-platform and falling over this
issue.
On Windows, i can change the filetype of the open dialog to only show .docx
files, but if i type the name of a .odt file in the filename field, it will
pick it, though it still tries to load it as a .docx file. ;D

Hiding of file extensions isnt relevant, as you can easily enable the showing
of file extensions.</pre>
