Suggestion, when exporting a specific flow, entire flow on tab, name the downloaded file to the name of the flow tab? For example, if the active tab in the editor is 'my flow', if I do an export of that tab, name the flow file downloaded to 'my flow.flows'. Of course if you exporting all flows or just selected nodes, you may not want this, but if you exporting the entire tab naming the downed file to that tab name/label would be a user friendly feature.
