Unless I'm missing something, this really does seem to be a bug.

The default type identifier for PowerPoint 2008 documents is 
"org.openxmlformats.presentationml.presentation"

However,
choose file of type {"org.openxmlformats.presentationml.presentation"}

does not let you choose one of these; it has to be chosen using
choose file of type {"PPTX"}


The real problem is:
- some files only show up using the type identifier
- some files only show up using the file type
- you can't use both
