Since Sigil 2.6.0, however, the save dialog always shows "untitled" as the default, even though the tab title correctly displays the template/plugin name.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install the Template2 plugin (or any similar plugin that opens a template and sets a book name).
2. Open a template using the plugin.
3. Observe that the tab shows the correct name (e.g., "bald_").
4. Click "Save As" for the first time.
5. The suggested filename is "untitled" instead of the plugin-specified name.
Expected behavior:
- The save dialog should suggest the plugin/template filename as default, like in Sigil 2.4.2.
Actual behavior:
- The save dialog ignores the plugin name and shows "untitled".
Is there a way to force Sigil 2.6.0 to use the plugin-specified filename for the initial save, or is this no longer possible with the current version?
Thank you for your advice!

One quick workaround is to edit the template's OPF to set the book title to "Template2_" then save it.
Then when you pull in the template, it should get assigned the name you want.
Please give that a try.
