The destination filename check relies on a mw.Title object.
you can not have "File:.jpg" as a valid title object, so errors are thrown. Worse, you cannot fallback to returning null, because this is the only location keeping track of the file extension.
Point of note. is it wise to have this as a mw.Title ? you can't seem to enter 'invalid titles' this way, which might be a bad UI experience ?

Could you inform us whether you are still working (or still plan to work) on this issue?
Only in case you do not plan to work on this issue anymore, should the assignee be set back to default and the bug status changed from ASSIGNED to NEW/UNCONFIRMED? Thanks.
