 When a project is opened and a missing layer is recognized, at least for
 shapefiles, the layer id is appended to the file name, so a matching file
 cannot be selected. E.g., the file being searched for in the dialog will
 be "File of type: Site_Areas.shp|layerid=0" whereas the file name is
 actually "Site_Areas.shp". The appended layer information seems to be
 masking the file in the open file dialog requiring the user to switch to
 all shapefiles in order to make the file selectable.
