The non-parenthesized text in the file type filter combo box is going to be descriptive enough in most cases, and users will practically always try to pick the target file before checking the file type filter. Drawing inspiration from the Open dialog in GIMP, the attached mockup shows the file chooser in the Flickr scenario with file extensions omitted. The extensions should instead be placed in a tooltip (the tooltip should line-wrap to avoid the same problem of being too wide for the screen).
