    Description

      When uploading a File (to DAM), DamUploafield#setCaptionExtension tries to set a caption depending on the mime-type. In many cases the calculated type is "application", for instance for swf, pdf, doc, fla, swf and many others.
      In such case UI will tell the user >> Your application has been uploaded successfully << after he added a word- or pdf-file.
      We should avoid the word "application" in the user feedback text but use the more generic "file" or even the correct type instead.

      Anyway avoid to give too specific feedback since it might become hard to translate in other languages. We need translations with a placeholder which must be correct.
      For instance german translation of media types (Bild, Audio, Video, Text, Anwendung, etc.) have different genders which makes it nearly impossible to get a correct translation.

      The ticket is added to MGNLUI since the bundle for these translations is located in the ui_project (magnolia-ui-admincentral; mgnl-i18n.uploadField-messages), but the evaluation of the type during the upload is done in DAM (DamUploafield).
