Would it be possible to force a .json file extension when saving to file?

I don't think this necessarily counts as a bug... but it would be really helpful if the game forced a .json extension for saves to file.

Currently, the automatically generated filename ends with .json, but if you start typing anything, of course it replaces the extension as well. Since it saves as "any file ., Trials in Tainted Space doesn't add the .json back.

Some of that is OS dependent - in Linux, changing the name does NOT change the extension.

After reinstalling Debian Stable because I borked my Debian Sid trying to install Krita to redact personal information from the screenshot, I see that it only highlights the name part of the filename. Neat. Here's hoping the UPS management software doesn't need to be restarted every hour or so like last time on Stable.

Still, I think there's a way to create the same effect on Windows, by changing the "All Files ." part somehow.
