            Bug ID: 499348
           Summary: Add an extension for images created using pasted
                    clipboard contents
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 24.12.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: justin at kde.org
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Today I learned a cool feature of Dolphin in that I can paste an image from my
clipboard using Ctrl + V, and it will ask me for a filename and Data format,
e.g. PNG.

However, when the file is created it is not given an extension, e.g.
myimage.png. This is fine on Linux, as it uses metadata of the file to
determine that it's a PNG. Windows and maybe other operating systems need a
file extension to determine how to open it. So if I was to send this to a user
that uses Windows, they would not be able to open it.
