Title: Choose File Limited by File Extension OR Type ???
Since there is no reliable correlation between image files with a given file extension (e.g., .jpg, .tif, .jpeg, .tiff) and the existence of a file type (e.g., {"JPEG", "TIFF"}), is there any way to use Choose File or a reasonable facsimile to accomplish something like the line below, where possibly JPEG or TIFF files may exist but have no Finder type?

set vFileList to choose file of type {"JPEG", "TIFF"} with prompt vPrompt with multiple selections allowed
