Description _ gtzabari 2004-03-09 12:35:31 UTC 
One shouldn't have to convert text files "to
default" in order to rename its extension. The
same holds true for any other type of file. Users
should be able to seamlessly shift from one file
type to another by simply modifying the filename
extension. The current behavior is annoying and
unexpected (compared to native OS UI).

This issue was solved long time ago. Because nobody has reopened it neither
added comments, we are verifying/closing it now. 
If you are still able to reproduce the problem, please reopen. 

Thanks in advance.
