What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

Currently, file extensions either display with or without their file extension, as specified by setting; just like in Windows Explorer.
However, it would be better if (by a setting of course) the user could change the way that extensions are displayed to a more dynamic way: the extension does not display in the explorer itself, but only appears when editing the name of the file. This would allow for a cleaner view while maintaining the functionality to allow for an enhanced experience.

Requirements

  • Add ability to display file extension only while editing file name
  • Add corresponding setting (disabled by default of course)

Files Version

3.8.5.0

Windows Version

10.0.22631.4391
