Wouldn't it be consequent to rename the 'file open dialog' to 'document
open dialog'? And changing the entry int he menu bar from 'File' to
'Document'?

An alternate suggestion (if it is easier) is have File | Open default to
"All documents" rather than "All Files (*.*)". The reason is that novice
users are clicking on document types such as .pdf's and getting a confusing
error message. OOo should not by default list unsupported document types in
the File | Open dialog.

Subject: [dev] File | Open default file type
The following enhancement requests are all related:
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=10048
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=19918
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=67163
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=70421
(and for a counterview, see
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5348
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=7329)
The gist of the enhancement request is: "File | Open always
defaults to file type *.*.
It would be nice if it defaulted to file type of the current
application, so for example, when in Writer, File | Open
would default to the file type 'Text Documents'."
What is the status of this enhancement? It looks like it may
have been implemented in v2.0.4rc3 and then removed. Is
there any plan to implement this?
Thank you,
Allen
