            Bug ID: 138882
           Summary: Should the search field in the Template Manager be
                    able to find non-template documents?
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: sdc.blanco at youmail.dk

1.  Use Tools-Options-Libreoffice-Paths-Template to add a directory to your
Templates path that has no templates (i.e., any directory will do) (if using
Windows, suggest to use a directory without subdirectories and not too many
files)

2.  Open Template Manager  (File-Templates-Manage Templates or Ctrl+Shift+N)

3.  Set Filter to: "All Applications", set Category to "My Templates"

4.  Enter a letter in Search field that corresponds to at least one file in the
added directory

Result:  non-template files are displayed. 

Question:  Is this intended/expected behavior?

IMO -- Template Manager should only show files whose file extensions are
considered as templates.  (see
https://help.libreoffice.org/7.2/en-US/text/shared/guide/convertfilters.html
for examples).
