It seems like a straightforward improvement for the common case where the {nav Save} dialog has a combobox for choosing the file type. However, Kate has a weird filter box instead. I wonder if having a filter feature even makes any sense when saving files, and if it does--why only for Kate? If necessary I can make the string return to "Filter" for these save-with-filter dialogs, but I'm still left wondering what the feature is actually for or if Kate is affected by a bug that should be fixed...</span></div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R241 KIO</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D12130">https://phabricator.kde.org/D12130</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>ngraham, Frameworks, VDG, bruns, alexeymin, rkflx<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>ltoscano, cfeck, rkflx, alexeymin, abetts, bruns, michaelh, ngraham<br /></div>
