a complaint

> You ask Konqueror to create a plain text file and then specify an extension that isn't a plain text file

besides that *it is* a plaintext file and if you ever would have looked
in a SSL cert file you would know that it - i am asked for a filename and
i enter a filename - there is nothing to add and change nor must the behavior
change between different extensions

why someone would need to create a .crt file?
because someone could by a certificte at Thatwte and has to copy&paste
the CA-cert as well as the orderred cert from a https-website!

i am saying that this stuid "i do not care about the user input and add what i want"
is pure Windows and not valued that much on a unix system
