We should have a good defaults with the ability for them to change. We shouldnt
have it display all files and then a user has to change the filetype drop down
to see specific types. If a user is in Writer, he will most likely want to open
a document and if he is in Calc, he will most likely want to open a
spreadsheet. We should cater to this behaviour, as it is good UX.
