--- Comment #3 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.heiko at gmail.com> ---
As far as I understand from the first posting you would like to have something
like "File types: Text documents" as known from the open dialog. Your use case
is that saving a file means also to know what other files are located in the
directory in order to synchronize the names, for instance. Sounds reasonable to
me, although it's a common issue for any application.
I think this would be an easy hack (dev should confirm please). The 'filter' in
the standard dialog is usually specified with the default extension but often
you can switch to "all files|*.*", which shows all files in this directory. If
we take the filter from the open dialog with "Text documents|*.doc,*,odt..." it
should not only solve this issue but also add consistency.
