Actually, even this stinks. What's wrong with the computer assuming that when 
you're saving an object, you want the .lwo added to the base name. Or if you're 
saving a scene, have the file default to .lws.

This is what computers are good at doing! 

And if you want a different suffix, add it yourself.
