Presumably, since this is mature API, it's behaving as designed. You can get
the behavior you want by using a panel delegate to disable choosing directories.
However, a better choice might be specify your desired files by UTI rather than
extension. ('kUTTypeDiskImage' is the UTI for disk images.) You simply pass the
UTI in place of the extension. That should work without a panel delegate.
Note also that 'runModalForDirectory:...' is deprecated in 10.6. The correct
way is to use 'setAllowedFileTypes:' and 'runModal:'.
