@donho ,
24 hours with no complaints! It’s a world record! :-)
Other than the fix to “Append Extension” in the SaveAs dialog, I haven’t yet found anything that doesn’t work the way it’s described in v8.0-RC3. (If only that PR had been a couple hours earlier… Pesky real life getting in the way of contributors’ schedules. ;-) )

Bugs like that should be reported by creating an issue in the github-based issues tracker – but you might want to search there to see whether it’s been reported already or not.
