Well, the real solution is just to drop this buggy software ;)
Since WEBDAV provides the mime-type there is no real reason
to insist on file extenstions (And I wonder how they do it
on mac) Try to ask Macromedia once again when they are going
to fix it ;) (And also when they will complete their CSS support ;)


The only thing which would work is to simulate the extension
on download (you need a custom folder - alike product for this)
Or you accept the extensions and map the objects later via

context['template.html']()
