Inconsistent asset category file extensions makes it difficult / impossible to select certain file types

Hi there,

When configuring an asset category, you can choose among a bunch of file extensions. The office files are a bit inconsistent:

- I can select docx but not doc
- I can select xlsx but not xls
- I can select ppt but not pptx

Since the "new" formats are so common, would it make sense to just allow both? I.e.

- doc / docx
- xls / xlsx
- ppt / pptx

The gif extension is an obvious missing item here, it's quite common because of its animation capabilities.

Also, would it make sense to have an option here to define additional extensions?
