Disable Slic3r 1.40.1 Octoprint File Name Dialog

Is there a way to disable the dialog that comes up in the new Slic3r v1.40.1 asking for the file name to save on OctoPrint? (When sending gcode to the printer via the Send to printer button).

No. Why do you need that? Is one additional click such an annoyance to you?

I know the upstream Slic3r implements the following: If you click the button, it will send without prompting. If you click the button with the shift key down, it will open a dialog. But I find such behavior hackish, difficult to discover for a newcomer.

Been using Slic3r and OctoPrint for 3 years and never knew you could hold the shift key and get the dialogue box. I much prefer it automatically presenting me with the file naming option.
