I would like to request a feature that lets you exclude files based on file extension in the add torrent dialog.
Means if I say "exclude all *.png files" then all png files are automatically unchecked when I open the torrent.

Additionally and probably easier to add I would like to request a second feature that shows the file icon in the add torrent dialog so I can quickly see whats an image, a video, a zip or executable file. The current dialog is too small and I always have to resize columns and then check the file extension etc.... its really time consuming. (Already exist in pull requests...)
