Latest Confirmation in: 4.1.3

Creating this post I realized I had an old version so re-created the test I
made with 4.1.2 yielding the same results.

I started by opening a TSV with Windows explorer contextual menu Open with >
OpenOffice Calc. As I saw no activity, I tried opening the file and it do so as
a text file. I then did the same but selecting the filter for Spreadsheets
which would hide the TSV. I then found this issue and a post in it suggested
selecting the file before using the filter and did so but again it opened as a
text file.

Finally as I was closing the files to update AOO I was the flat-file DB import
window. So in addition to adding my support to this issue, I'd like to suggest
that the import window be assigned to a new file, instead of an old one; ie:
you have the following files showing in the calc group "A, B, C" and when in B
you try importing that a new file be created, ie D, and that the import window
be associated with D instead of B, as otherwise the window will only show when
selecting B.
