Summary: Cannot open zipped shapefile containing also xml

Initial Comment:
There is a problem with opening zipped shapefiles which are created with ESRI 
products.  ESRI is generating an additional .xml file that contains some 
metadata about the shapefile.
 
OpenJUMP File open mechanism believes that such shapefile in zip format 
contains two datasets: shapefile and a XML file containing GML data.  OpenJUMP 
wants to open them both and insists user to point the Input-Template-File for 
XML-GML.  If the template is not given the file open task will not go further.
 
It is possible to fool OpenJUMP by telling that the .xml file inside the zip is 
of type FME GML. In that case template is not asked and user can load the 
shapefile.  OJ is trying to open also the .xml metadata file which is leading 
to an error.  That does not harm the user really because the shapefile opens as 
supposed.  However, a novice OpenJUMP user cannot discover the FME workaround.  
I consider this is a bug and user should have an option "Do not open" for each 
recognised data type and for each individual file found from the zip.

Message:
There has been a patch added by Ede to avoid the reading process to crash
if the xml reading fails, and a DummyReader added by Michael, which makes
it possible to set a Reader doing nothing for txt files and/or xml files.

Message:
The modification of FileLayerLoader framework to add options is not a
simple task.
Wonder if we can just find a way to hide xml files in a zip containing
shapefiles, or always hide xml extension, as it is rarely used for gml
data.

Anyway, if one want to add options, he will probably have to start from
org.openjump.core.ui.plugin.file.open.SelectFileLoaderPanel
