            Bug ID: 410189
           Summary: Dialog to enter new scratch file name should not
                    propose already existing filename
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 5.3.80
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Plugin: Scratchpad
          Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: kosse...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

For convenience it is nice to have a filename proposed from the start, so one
can just quickly confirm without having to think and then go testing what one
was to test.

The convenience though runs into disappointment when the proposed filename will
not be accepted on "Ok", due to conflicts. As can happen if one 2x is fine with
the "example.cpp" file name proposed.

Ideally the dialog would be so smart to propose a name which is not already
taken, e.g. by adding some number postfix (iterating from first none, then 1
until a non-clashing variant is found). Or have some other source of unique &
practically endless naming patterns.
