I am on Windows 7 now but I think this feature existed on past Windows versions. By default Windows 7 is installed with "Hide extensions for known file types" enabled. In Cyberduck 4.0 (8510) the File Chooser Dialog functionality will not upload files that Windows has hidden file extensions. Cyberduck "Show hidden files" is enabled if it makes any difference. For example I try to upload "test.htm" but after selecting the file displayed as "test" in the File Chooser Dialog it tries to upload "test" instead and fails.

Cyberduck drag-n-drop upload feature does not exihbit this problem. I drag over the "test" file icon and it uploads "test.htm" just fine.

In 5c7590e. This is a non-trivial issue as we read the filename directly from the listview item. I did not find a way to get access to the backing PIDL. Also refer to my SO question. As a workaround the current solution forces the dialog to show the extension independent of the Windows Explorer setting. The fix will be included in the next snapshot build.

Thanks for reporting this!
