You are right about this issue. This is a flaw in the allowed extensions check. It first checks if the umbracoFile property is available and after that if the umbracoFile extension is allowed. If no umbracoFile property is found (like with a Folder) the check is skipped. This should indeed be different. I'll see if I can fix it for the next version.
"Allowed extensions" option not enforced when creating media item
I just came across the following inconsistency:
I didn't try with other media types, but I don't think this should be possible. I'm not able to effectively limit the choice to images.
Is there a way to disable the creation of new media items from within DAMP ?
