Well that's because ".file" looks like an extension already....
Imagine you want to name your kspread files foo.kspread because .ksp looks \
ugly. You can actually do that. If .ksp was always appended, then you \
wouldn't be able to.

The "what's this" help for the checkbox in the file dialog says explicitely
that an extension is added *only* "if no extension is specified".

KDE-wide actually.

I'm tempted to say there is no bug, since it works as documented.
On the other hand, it makes a difference whether one types the filename \
first or selects the type first, since when selecting the type in the \
Filter combo, the extension is automatically changed (even when having \
typed "spread.file"). So this looks a bit inconsistent...
