On the save As window add the URL shortcut files as an option.

[SLS]

I would like to propose the inclusion of URL shortcut files as an option in the "Save As" window. Currently, when using "Save As," to download a website the available formats are limited to "Webpage, Complete," "Webpage, HTML Only," and "Text File."

Adding support for saving as a URL shortcut file—such as .url, .webloc, .desktop, or .desktop-url—would be very convenient. At the moment, the only way to create such shortcut files is by dragging the address bar direction, which can be inconvenient in certain contexts or on some devices.

This feature would improve usability and offer a more accessible alternative for users who prefer or need to save links without relying on drag-and-drop actions.
