[libreoffice-design] [Fwd: [Bug 41000] FILEOPEN - Filter Selection dialog needs structure and preselection]

Hi all,

since I lack some time ... could anybody pick this up and work out a
straightforward proposal? That would be cool!

Personally, I don't know what the technical constraints are, so you
might need to ask the developers what kind of information is available
by the filters (their capabilities, e.g. "I'm a pixel graphics filter.")

Cheers,
Christoph
