It is tricky but, answering your question, you could enter a name
ending with a period to save without an extension.

It seems this isn't going anywhere then. The default behaviour on
Linux is to get the .py already, so this patch changes nothing there.
On Windows no extension is set by default, and with this patch it is
always .py if no extension is specified.
