I don't think it's supposed to filter ignored extensions, if is was the
case how one can list all the files in a directory using e.g
directory-files-recursively ?

IMO the filtering should happen (or not) in the application that use
file-name-all-completions.

I would be annoyed in my own applications if you modify
file-name-all-completion to handle ignored extensions.

So please don't do that.

Thanks.
