    Default Saving Changes to Family Templates

    Summary: The ability to save customizations to or create new family templates by using SAVEAS instead of having to rename the file extension.

    Description: While the OOTB family templates work well, it would be nice to be able to customize the family templates (i.e. add shared parameters, formulas, company info, etc.) and SAVEAS to an .rft file, rather than having to SAVEAS a .rfa family and then rename the file extension back to .rft. It would save several steps in the process and eliminate potential errors in renaming.
