@alexdima this appears to be because the ModeService doesn't know the file extension csv.

I could not reproduce on macOS.

I think there will always be file extensions which we don't know, but I agree it is a bit ugly that the current file's extension is not shown in this list. @bpasero perhaps the list coming in from the mode service can be enhanced with the current file's extension if the current file's extension is not in that list?

I think the workaround for now is to choose "No extension" and just type file2.csv. Leaving it to @bpasero if he wants to add automatically the current file extension.

This might require help from Electron.

Verification (Windows, macOS)

• open a *.csv file
• save as
• you should see CSV file extension as first entry in the dropdown
