quick upload interface for multiple files or images

Ticket

+commit
 

Want to avoid making people come up with a name for a file they're about to upload.

 

Most of this should be covered in Managable Patterned Contextual Lists, which will bring this kind of interface to any card type, but it's possible that there will be some special handling for images/files required...

 

Also see add ability to limit number of Pointer items and add min number of Pointer items

 

 

 

Thoughts:

  1. why have special functionality for images and files when we might want these for lists of any type?
  2. right now we only have one interface for adding new cards, and there are a lot of good code reasons for trying to keep it that way.
  3. Seems weird to take away the old way, at least if there are still examples of people wanting to reuse already uploaded cards
  4. also seems weird to make people make several correct clicks in order to see an upload button.

 


My current thought is that this needs to be done as a new pointer type. more later
