I don't see this behavior: I just created the attached test.denemo from
scratch using the current 2.6.51 build. It is compressed but does not
have a .gz suffix. I opened it both from the menu and from the command
line and it opened fine.

Where I think the confusion may have come in is this: if you then run 

gzip test.denemo

on that (already compressed file) you get a file

test.denemo.gz

which if you try to load does indeed fail to load (because our libxml
only uncompresses once when it finds a compressed file)

the error message you get on the terminal is:

test.denemo.gz:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
�
^
Denemo - WARNING : Could not read XML file test.denemo.gz

which makes sense, it uncompressed the file and found a compressed
file, not one starting with '<' char as an XML file should.

Can you confirm that you are seeing the same behavior as me?
