Description
I can't see a reason to mantain showing them. Just one example are the bak files that are generated after changing a project; then when you open the project tab there are a lot of useless files that only annoy you while searching the right project to load. Or also with vsts, with the dll file there are usually a lot of other files you don't really need to see.
So in my opinion LMMS should show only files he can read like mmpz, fxp, sf2, wav, ogg, dll and so, instead of showing also a lot of other confusing files with the ? icon.
So just let me know what do you think

Research direction
The payload names no implementation file or test. Start by locating LMMS’s sidebar project-tab file browser and the logic that decides which extensions are shown; compare it with the formats LMMS can open. Done means unsupported files such as .bak no longer appear in the sidebar while supported project, instrument, and audio files remain available.
