We have some code to guess type by contents already.

What we could do is have
- a text field for the file name, with a browse button
- a combox (less clutter that a list like we have now) with the list
of types (== templates), which is set initially to 'auto' (or
'default'). The user can choose to override the template guessed by
the dialog.
