Add content type to Dropbox JS Chooser

Hey there. Would you consider adding a content type field to the file objects in the success callback in the Dropbox JS Chooser?

This isn't currently available in the Dropbox Chooser, and I can't say if or when it might be, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request!

One thing you may want to do is maintain a mapping of file extension to type and use that against the returned file extension. For example, we have a list of groupings here:
