Hi,
We have at least one bug on old AI files importer, namely LP145145.
In the past I already suggested moving to UC for importing old AI files.
Do you think it's the right time to do it now? If yes, do we need a separate verb for this extension so that both PS-based and PDF-based AI importers would work?

Yes. I think you need a new input extension for that. The problem is, you also need a new filename extension registered - for example we have a separate extension for importing AI SVG files, but it requires *.ai.svg which makes it almost useless.

I think this is a bug in the file window. It should allow for you to select any file while selecting how it gets opened. I really dislike how the filters work in it.
