custom images not loading under 0.84

[walter]

I'll be doing more debugging/.testing as a result of  http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2010-October/027600.html and have a crude work-around in the code right now. The problem is datastore.find({'mime-type': mime_type }) returns nothing in 0.84. (The workaround is that datastore.find({'title': basename}) returns everything, so I can -- inefficiently -- sort through the entire Journal looking for images to upload.

The attached file contains the work-aorund.

As explained in that thread, the solution is to use {'mime_type': [mime_type]} . That will work on 0.84+.
You can even pass multiple MIME types and get all entries matching any of the MIME types.

using {'mime_type': [mime_type]}
