[Bug] Multi-image drag-and-drop attachment and attachments panel UX regression
Bug Description
Subject: Regression — Loss of attachments panel UX (multi-image workflow broken)
Hey team,
Wanted to flag a UX regression that started around v2.1.83, when the
attachments panel was replaced with inline [Image #N] chips.
Two problems came bundled together:
- BUG — Multi-image drag-and-drop broken
Dropping 2+ images at once only attaches the first one. Already
tracked in #39416.
- UX REGRESSION — Loss of attachments panel
Even if #39416 gets fixed, the new inline-chips design removes
capabilities the old panel had. Concrete use cases I lost:
- Staging multiple images BEFORE sending (I used to drop 10 screenshots,
review them, then submit)
- Selective removal — if image #2 and #5 were wrong, I could delete
just those. Now I have to cancel the whole message and re-drop
the correct 8.
- Visual confirmation of what's queued — the chips in-chat don't
show previews, just labels.
The old panel was genuinely better for image-heavy workflows (design
reviews, bug reports with multiple screenshots, visual QA). The inline
chips look cleaner but lose real functionality.
Request: please consider restoring the attachments panel, OR add
selective-delete + preview to the inline chips before closing #39416.
Otherwise fixing the multi-drag bug only gets us halfway back to parity.
Thanks — love the tool overall, just miss this specific flow.
