<pre>Hi Jean-Baptiste,
Yes, a previous bug I reported was found to be in the native vs non native save
dialog under my desktop environment. I use KDE / Plasma and using the native
LibreOffice save dialog as soon as any key was pressed in the filename field it
would just autorepeat incredibly fast making it impossible to save any
document.
I noticed that there is a small checkbox at the bottom of the save dialog which
says "Automatically select filename extension (.docx)". It was checked. When
this is unchecked the issue goes away. Seems like an odd feature since it
dramatically increases the likelihood of accidental file overwriting. Also when
I looked closer there are two files whose names which start with letters closer
to the start of the alphabet so how it selected the particular file it does to
be the file it auto selects I don't know.
I also assume that since this is a very specific save option, i.e. .docx, that
I am using the native LibreOffice save dialog.
