Comment:

 The new object chooser mockups (wiki.laptop.org/go/Designs/Object_Chooser)
 include Journal-like search and filter capability.  As such, I'd like to
 allow activities to a) specify a mime-type list and b) specify default
 filters and perhaps even c) specify if those filters are locked.

 In this manner, Write could pre-set the "Anything" filter to "Images", and
 additionally pass a list of supported mime-types such that, for instance,
 SVGs don't appear within the list.  In the insert image case, Write may
 also want to prevent the user from changing the "anything" filter.
 Finally, we may also wish to allow Write to pass the string "Choose an
 image" to replace the default "Choose an object" string.

 I'm not sure how hard these additions will be given the patches provided
 here and the recent changes to the object chooser, but I think that
 improving the chooser interactions is a really important thing to do for
 Sugar.  I'm proposing 8.2.0:? in case this is easy...otherwise I vote for
 9.1.0:+
