    the component that implements <type scope="com::sun::star::document">XFilter</type>.</p>

    <p>The application will set the <type scope="com::sun::star::document">MediaDescriptor</type>
    using the interface <type scope="com::sun::star::beans">XPropertyAccess</type> and then
    call <method>XExecutableDialog::execute<method>.</p>
