[document-picker] Passing multiple mime types on document picker

See original GitHub issue

I’m trying to get spreadsheet format files only but seems it is currenty not possible. It would be nice to have this. Also is it possible to use some wildcard for showing spreadsheets format only? I tried application/* but its not working.

Bump, this is a huge UI issue. on android, it’s not possible to do even simple filters like image/* because android cameras save both a raw and jpg image. need to be aple to specify multiple specific formats. this is definitely something that is possible for all of the main platforms (web, android, iOS); therefore it’s completely unexpected to not be able to do something so fundamental to a proper file picker
