Bug Description
Hi Friends,
Since 0.92.3, the Export PNG dialog offers an inapropriate filename. (Windows 7, Inkscape 0.92.3, 7z package)
Let's say this is an SVG file called image.svg. When you go to export a PNG, it offers the filename image.svg.png.
I can't think of any good reason to have the ".svg" wedged in between the name and the .png extension.
Can the ".svg" be left out please?
Thanks :-)
PS - Have we gone a little bit overboard with the bug reporting guidelines below?? Doesn't it give the impression that we've lost out patience? Maybe we could delete the last 20 to 22 lines of that reminder??

- not reproduced on Windows 10, Inkscape 0.92.3 (2405546, 2018-03-11), using the Save As Cairo PNG dialog.
- not reproduced on Windows 10, Inkscape 0.92.3 (2405546, 2018-03-11), using the Export PNG Image dialog. The dialog comes up with the default name 'bitmap.png' when I do the first export to png.
If I then save the original svg file, the svg file will remember the name of the saved png file. The svg file will contain a new entry which will read as:
inkscape: export- filename= "C:\Windows\ Temp\test. png"
If I then do another export as png, using the same svg file, then the new export will show the remembered png filename in the export dialog.
- could you attach the svg file that you are using, for testing purposes? Likely the bad file name is embedded in the svg file from a previous export.
