I have seen something similar in the Mac GUI. I *think* it was something
simple like only certain file extensions are recognised as IDE images.

You were right! Thank you -- on behalf of the user. According to
https://git.tuxfamily.org/hatari/hatari.git/tree/src/gui-osx/PrefsController.m#n332
.... only ".hdv" is accepted as extension for IDE images, whereas ACSI
images can have the extensions ".bin" or ".hdv".

User confirms that IDE images work with a file named "hd.hdv".

Now this leaves *me* wondering: Doesn't the macOS file selector show the
acceptable file extensions? On the user's screenshot
https://forum.atari-home.de/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=17195.0;attach=31656;image
I don't see any indication that only .hdv is allowed.

Pretty user-unfriendly, imho. Windows handles this much better: actually
showing the extensions.
