Motivation

The standard file format could be set to a document template file format type. This is no good user experience and makes the list longer and harder to read than necessary.

Specification

The Always save as list box (marked red below) will only show file format filters not registered as document template file format filters. All other currently available file formats are kept unchanged.

Illustration 1 The applications default saving format could no longer be set to a template document type
