Is it a bug or a feature? ;-) Ok, you have reported it, so it is a bug.
The combo box is part of the system file dialog. And it sets only a filter for the files in the view.
The type of play-list is selected by the file extension only.
To fix this issue, we have to write our own file save dialog, that may will feel foreign on some systems, or we can pop up a type selection box before showing the native file dialog.
