[Bug 1473670] [NEW] Remove current clock time from default save name

 

Public bug reported:

I feel like the current clock time when the service list is 
saved for the first time is irrelevant.

It also creates problems for translating because : is used as default
h:m separator in many countries. (Windows does not support : in
filenames)

So instead of  d/m/y h/m it could be just d/m/y .
I know this can be shortened via the options menu, 
but for me (h/m) seems something the majority of users don’t need.
(And there is also those users who don’t really 
change any settings and just go with it anyways).

h/m might be handy if you are saving multiple service files during one 
day and don’t want to rename them, but I can’t think of many other reasons.
If there are any, please enlighten me.

Blessings and thank you for the effort!
