customText: ITextTranslation - this.uploader.reset() -> not resetting the file

Currently there are no built-in methods that would help to restrict file type and size. However, you can listen to (fileAdded) output, which returns all necessary information that you can then use to block specific files from uploading. 
customText is an object with 3 parameters that allow to add new translations for file upload component:
{fileText: 'Drag and drop a file here or click', removeText: 'Remove', imageFileText: 'Drag and drop or click to replace'}
I couldn't reproduce the problem with reset() method on my end. Which version of the plugin do you use? Please try to use FileUploadComponent, there was no 'Mdb' prefix in older versions.
We will take a closer look at the problem with 'No file choosen'.
