Agree. It could be good if it in core with (Not working? Try simple uploader) -mode-
Would be better usability wise if a standard file input was shown and if JS determines if XMR upload is supported, replace with the drop elements.

That's what the plugin does ATM.

Yeah, lol...

Silly as it sounds, though... How can I download this plugin?
What, we sure could use it on wedge.org itself... :lol:

Uploaded this to AeMe as well, after adding a little fix to prevent form submission during upload (translation required here Nao :P). Again, this has the full potential to kill your cat. Don't blame me.

Dragooon, I'm still waiting for your approval to change the author ID to Wedgeward
Nobody told me about this? I didn't even know there was an alternative copy of this plugin in Wedge's plugin repository :P. I don't mind the author ID change, but there has to be a better way to maintain the repository. Can't it be some sort of svn:external with the master in my GitHub account?

* Arantor bangs the core feature drum :P

Trouble with making things into core features is that I'm not a fan of 'core plugins' and that prevents easy linkage back to repos.

Remember the bug where a selected word in the posting box being dragged would trigger this plugin's event?  That's why it was removed from this site...

BTW, whatever became of the ambitious dream to replace attachments with media items?

Sure I remember that. I'm still convinced it's ultimately not a blocker for it being a core feature, but simply that the selector is not as selective as it should be about grabbing events.

Mostly I think Nao and I have been quietly hoping the other will have a sudden idea on how to solve the architectural issues that come out of it but I think that in the end I'll just have to go in and do it. There is one aspect to it that is rather awkward to solve but not unsolvable, it's just figuring out how to do it without breaking the crap out of everything.

If only drag events let us see if any files are being dragged, then such would be easier.

That stupid ass bug isn't fixed yet? I swear I fixed it months ago...its a pretty simple fix.
