apex_data_export.download placing an underscore after file name

Hi,

When using the apex_data_export.download procedure to download a blob file I'm getting an odd behavior, where an underscore character is placed after the file name when downloading.

I've create an apex.oracle.com app to demonstrate: https://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/r/vihdamarques/test-apex-data-export/home

The only code I have in this page is a process placed in before header section:

declare
   l_export apex_data_export.t_export := apex_data_export.t_export(
      file_name => 'some.txt'
    , mime_type => 'text/plain'
    , content_blob => utl_raw.cast_to_raw('hello world!')
   );
begin
   apex_data_export.download(
      p_export => l_export
   );
end;

And as you can see in the demo app, when the file is downloaded, it's name becomes: "some.txt_".

I have the same behavior in other 23.2 apps we have in our internal APEX instances.

Thanks.
