New field type: fastimage
It would be great to have a new image field type "fastimage" that would work the same way as FastImageTV does (https://github.com/Pathologic/FastImageTV).
So, instead of browsing the server for the right image, user will be able to instantly upload and assign an image. Uploaded image would respect upload rules defined in the config file (path and file name format).
This field type will not have to display input field (with full file path), but only a file name as plain text. Or just a preview with two buttons next to it: upload, delete.
The disadvantage of this method is that you cannot select already uploaded image, need to upload everytime.
Sure, but there are many cases and projects when this solution is a lot more user friendly and intuitive. For example main news images on websites with many news articles that don't use the same image. It depends on the project, really. It is not a "must have" feature, but would be great to have it in PageBuilder :)
I'm not sure that this functionality will be implemented in that form, but I think, we need aability to upload images in one click (or one drop), without opening filemanager.
