--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
We quickly bump up against the "Document Service" handling that each module
utilizes.

What's defined is the default handler for each module. Simply put, using
something undefined by typedetection [1] requires the filter listing--or of
navigating focus into a difference LO module you'd like to use. 

Maxim was thinking of a tweak to document history so reopening from our MRU
recorded to user profile would make a specific module assignment, see bug 65017
and guess that is still valid.

Beyond that, the os/DE provided file manager or LibreOffice's own file dialogs,
can not pre-filter the "All files" list or preload a filter from previous
openings. Each is a unique instantiation and gets the full set of defaults. 
And, not clear there is sufficient use case to spend the dev effort on the
native coude it would require.
