Research direction

The issue names no file or test; start by locating the upload path that processes the Slug header and compare the supplied .jpg name with the server's appended .jpeg extension. Done means establishing and implementing the intended behavior for user-supplied extensions, with tests covering this upload case.

Description

I'm trying to upload an jpeg image file. In the Slug header I give it a name with a .jpg extension. However, the server appends another extension after that-- .jpeg.

Is there some way I can get it to stop appending the additional extension? I really need to be able to supply my own extensions in my own application.

Thanks!
