Open file dialog

Problem description: 

In the file open/save dialogs, only the first "well known" file types can be selected individually. The ones below, starting with "ODF Text document (*.odt)" and including all the ones starting with "*.xxx" are selected altogether and it is not possible to select any of them individually.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start LO calc
2. File -> Open
3. Try to select i.e. "*.txt|Text (*.txt)" from the file filter

Current behavior:
All but the first file types are selected altogether

Expected behavior:
Only "*.txt|Text (*.txt)" is selected

Platform (if different from the browser): 
kubuntu 12.04 German
Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0

Open file dialog after trying to select a filter

It seems that all the *.xxx filters are only one element in the list

Checked with:
LO 3.5.4.2 
Build ID: own W7 debug build
Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit

Could not reproduce.
Comment 3 Torsten 2012-07-05 12:30:11 UTC 
I suppose the issue is related to the implementation of the file chooser, and only occurs on Linux/KDE but not on Windows.
