Bug with regards to .tar.gz in Chrome when 'Asking where to save downloads'
Every time I try to download or save a .tar.gz file, I get something like this:
The popup is simply wrong, I've used the right .tar.gz extension. Clicking on Use .gz saves the file as .tar.gz, and clicking on Use .tar.gz saves the file as .tar.tar.gz.
Is there a way to fix this?
This is a documented bug:

Look for a nightly build or update to potentially address this or perhaps choosing another browser. Hat tip to jaume for the comment alerting us to the specific issue being tracked.
