Is there a "stock" chooser for image content providers?

For instance, when I want to attach an image to a text message in the stock Messages app, I get a familiar system dialog presenting the Camera, Gallery, and other image Content Providers.

I want to use this in my own app. I see plenty of libraries that allow the user to choose between Gallery and Camera, but I want all of the user's installed Image source to appear.

Is the system dialog from Messages (and other stock apps, such as Mail) really custom for those apps? Do we really need to build our own? Storage Access Framework does not appear to be the right solution since it bypasses the camera (or other image sources that I haven't thought of but may be present on a user's device).
