What do you mean by this?
When you click on the file for upload, it gets the complete file name, 
does it not?
Of are you saying the file should be like this:
"dictionary.oxt" will need to be renamed "dictionary.oxt.oxt"?

I am for anything that would fix this issue, as long as when it is 
downloaded, the user will not have to add their own extension name to 
the file.
