Enabling bulk upload of attachments or images

Neale Justin -- on June 19
I would like to see a feature created that would let me select more than one file at a time for attachment to a page or section.
This feature would apply to images or any other file types. I upload a lot of documents to a YACS site and having to upload files one at a time is very time consuming.

Ideally the feature would permit drag and drop from the desktop but if not easily implementable then perhaps instead a menu to allow you to select multiple files at once for upload.

Example given in the link below, this came from NickR on the last English Claverdage.

Yes this sounds a great feature, something I want, as I have hundreds of images waiting to be uploaded.

I also like the way you upload pictures at ebay: http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/sell/photo_tutorial3.html#standard_basic

Could be a great opportunity to use AJAX to dynamically add extra fields to upload images and create thumbnail previews.

As well as upload, further options could be upload from a zip, or look in a folder in /inbox.
