That is the reason is better modify the behavior of the activity filter,
than allow any random list of mime types.


I'm not sure to understand this. You are proposing to show all the files
with mime types the activity can open right? That's pretty much a list of
random mime types as far the filtering combo is concerned... You can't
select "Anything", you can't select a generic type and you can't select an
activity (this might actually be the nearest to accurate, but it's not
quite because the files are not necessarily created by the activity).


Oh I see, you are talking about the approach in your patch. That's still
quite tricky though... Would you keep the current filtering behavior for
journal? Would it apply to object chooser only? To certain object choosers
only?


Yes, the trickiest bit is how to display that in the UI. Non of the current filters does match this case here, using the activity icon would confront with what it currently means in the filter, as it means an object of that activity.

Maybe this special objectchooser has just no filter sub-toolbar? And the message when no matching object could be found reads as "No entry found that can be opened with Activity [Name of activity]."
