Yep, the posted release note mentions it: 

"enabled, when a file format, that has configurable settings, is selected in
the filter frop-down list"

Key being selected in the filter drop-down list and *not* the default *.* all
files filter.

Clearly an "Am I missing something?" situation.  

Since the intent is to make additional filtering dialogs follow this new UI
option, the need for user to select the correct import filter for their source
file is reasonable. 

Not sure I would call it a bug at this point, it just was unexpected for
generic CSV text. While the new Help article [1] does suggest a file with *.csv
would get the correct filter handling. Does that need an additional tweak?

Would bolding the release notes to select the CSV file format be sufficient?
