You've also got my vote.
Having said that, I want to save RTFs with a .doc
extension *when I want to* so if somebody could
implement a hidden option in the profile or possibly
a plugin that will only be used by those who know what
they're doing, I think that would be useful.
I don't think "Word Document with RTF extension" is
going to make sense for the majority of users.
Changing file extensions on Windows is a major pain.
Especially now that Windows has extensions hidden by
default. Many of the machines I've used in the past
12 months have had Control Panel blocked for good
reasons so it's not even possible to change it
manually in many cybercafes, libraries, etc.
