When I open a “Save” dialog, or a file selection dialog, only one type of file is shown. Sometimes it even filters by the extensions.
I don’t want this! This isn’t Windows, where file extensions really matter! How do I disable the filtering, or set it to show “All Files” by default?
The “Save Page” dialog: you’d think there are only 2 files here, both .html files

Nope! There’s lots of stuff!



Thanks! That’s a lot of info, looks useful.
When I said “XY problem”, was that a “shibboleet”?
The phrase “XY problem” was not in and of itself, but the paragraph below it where you explained what you wanted in more detail definitely helped.
