    Description

      If you enter "arbitrary" file extensions in the Assign file type restrictions, it seems to completely ignore types that it doesn't know:

      If you enter ".gmz", it will allow any type of file.

      If you enter ".jpg; .gmz" it will only allow jpg files, no other file types.
