 The wxgui file import wizards define all files as '*.*' which means that
 if you have total legal tif files which do not have the .tif extension you
 cannot see them in the file selector.

 In r.in.gdal this was replaced by '*' a long time ago, but in the import
 wizards it is still a nuisance.

 Classifying this as a bug since for some users this means they don't know
 how to import these files.
