File extension defaulting to txt #1761

Description

Follow-up on closed issue: https://github.com/coteditor/CotEditor/issues/1396 When saving a file without any extension, .txt is automatically appended. There appears to be no option to disable this behavior. The file format does not appear to influence this behavior. For instance, saving a Dockerfile as "Dockerfile" even when the file format is set to "Dockerfile" in CotEditor results in the file being saved as "Dockerfile.txt". In contrast, TextEdit offers a toggle to disable the automatic addition of the ".txt" extension on save. Would it be possible to implement a similar logic in CotEditor?

Thank you for the report. It seems to occur only on macOS 15 (or any other specific conditions) since CotEditor 5.0.5 correctly adds a filename extension on macOS 14 in my environment. Thus, this can be either a bug on macOS 15, the behavior internally changed in macOS 15, or there is some other hidden condition triggering this issue. Let me have some more time to investigate.
