If you "Save a copy..." of a .svg file changing its format to PDF the file is created with the correct extension, also if you leave the name with a .svg extension (i.e. if you save file.svg as PDF you will find file.pdf also without manually changing its name). I've checked once and now regularly do this to save time.

So, Inkscape already replaces (when needed) the old extension with the new one; what's missing is an immediate update of the filename field in the save dialog as soon as you change the format.
