Workflow inputs accept datasets of any type #20746

Describe the bug

It seems that one can input datasets of any type to workflow inputs. I tried with a simple workflow that should only accept txt, but one can select also binary and png files and the workflow runs.

This is still true if one sets txt as the accepted format of the input.

Edit: It seems that this worked on 24.2

Galaxy Version and/or server at which you observed the bug
Galaxy Version: 25.0

Browser and Operating System

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Use linked workflow and run on a binary file

Expected behavior

Workflow should not allow to select files of the wrong datatype (and also not run).

Additional context

Was reported first in the imaging matrix channel for a imaging workflow that accepted binary (but should only take a few image formats).
