Wordpress Gutenberg Media Upload Video Gallery

I want to have exactly the Media Upload Popup that is used when supplying the gallery attribute to the <MediaUpload> Component. Difference to normal Mediaupload is, that you see a sidebar on the left, and after selecting the items, you reach a view, where you can reorder media like in first image below, not like in the second one that appears with the code I am using:

<MediaUpload
  onSelect={ this.onSelectMedia }
  /*todo here should be gallery attr but it will disable video selection*/
  allowedTypes={ [ 'image', 'video' ] }
  accept="image/*,video/*"
  multiple
  value={ this.media.map( ( m ) => m.mediaId ) }
  render={ ( { open } ) => (
    <IconButton
      label={ __( 'Edit Media' ) }
      icon="images-alt2"
      onClick={ open }
    />
  ) }
/>

When I add the gallery attribute, the allowedTypes will somehow be overridden by the gallery attribute and only images will be shown in the MediaUpload Window.

First Image, how it is

Second Image, what i need (but with image + video showing)

I think this has nothing to do with the MediaUpload component itself but with the underlying logic that wordpress only allows attachments of type image in its built-in gallery. As soon as you add the prop gallery to the component the media modal will default to the gallery edit frame. Maybe it’s possible to extend the gallery type to also allow other mime-types.
