Bug Description
- open Inkscape 0.47 and create a new file
- save it under the name "test.svg"
Now you want to have a copy of your file as PDF. You therefore use the file Save As dialog and swithch there to PDF as output format.
The bug is that this dialog does not propose a filename.
In more than 90% of all cases you save a file with a similar name as the origianl file, e.g.
test.svg as test-2.svg
and the like. When saving as another format you even want to have the same filename, e.g.
test.svg as test.pdf
It is very annoying, especially when you have long filenames, that the Save As dialog does not propose the current filename as in all other applications I know.
This bug is a regression to Inkscape 0.46 and might be a duplicate of bug 171932 (the status of this is not clear to me) #171932
I'm using Windows XP.

Does this not affect other operating systems?
