Describe the solution you'd like

It'd be really cool if when you right clicked in the thumbnail pane to have a "filter by filetype..." option where it would give you a dialog with all the file types (shown in the thumbnail pane) as checkboxes.

I just had to look for .psd files so it was hard to see which was a .psd and which was .jpg/.png

Research direction

Start by locating the thumbnail pane's right-click context menu and the code that enumerates file types shown there. Add a file-type filter dialog with checkboxes and make the selected types control which thumbnails appear; verify that formats such as PSD, JPG, and PNG can be distinguished and filtered.
