Don't prompt for file name for new file until save

[PKirch-SE]

With a previous version I was able to open a json editor and paste in json for viewing without specifying a file name. This was really useful for reviewing json output from a log. I got formatting and coloring and so on. Now, it seems I have to specify a file name, which slows me down and clutters my file system since I have no need to persist this temporary data. I have to specify the json editor and then I also have to specify a json extension in the file name; otherwise, I just get a texxt editor. This workflow has gotten significantly more complicated. I'd prefer to go back to being able to defer specifying a file name until I decide that I want to save the data. This is the way it works when opening a new text file. Consistency in the new file workflows would be good. I don't know if the change in workflow was intentional/by-design or not, but for me this has been a regression.

What you describe should work. You shouldn't need to save the file. Can you provide clear repro steps with sample data?

1. From the menu select 'File', and then 'New File...'.
2. Prompted for file type or file name. Enter 'json'.
3. 'Create File' dialog pops up prompting for new file name.
4. The default file name is 'json', which if not changed will just create a text file, not a json file. Enter 'json.json'.
5. Select button Create File. (Only other choice is 'Cancel', which cancels the whole operation.
6. json file created.

I'm using version 1.100.2
