<p>Yes it does look like the support for extensions in some of the
Linux libraries is a bit illiterate. It would seem like since
extensions are not actually required in Linux that the library
creators have not fully understood how to handle them. Certainly
notice issues with Gimp.<br>

You are right, I can confirm this with a very recent build
of QGIS:<br>
<br>
- with extension we ask for confirmation of overwriting<br>
- without extension we silently overwrite an old file<br>
