Top Level Assembly Filter - Open Dialog

Other design tools have a button in the open dialog box that will filter the files in the open dialog box down to the Top Level Assembly. i.e.

This is a really great tool when looking at a flat structure with many assemblies and would be a great addition for Inventor.

Great collaboration tool: A time saver. Looking at file size to determine the top-assembly is not safe nor a sure bet. Great idea.

This would be incredibly helpful, especially with large data sets.

I found this tool was useful in Solidworks, but it was a little slow as the computer took a few seconds to find the top level. So it was only really useful on a folder with lots of sub assemblies in it.
