Ability to change the physical file for media-related items #4341

After importing media-related items (pictures, videos, sounds files, etc.) into Orchard, currently we can only edit their meta-data (title, caption, alternate). So for example when I display an Image content item using Media Library Picker Field and then want to change the image, I actually have to import the new image as an Image content item and reselect it instead of the old one. It would be nicer to be able to select a new file for the existing content item (so it wouldn't be a lot of manual updating if the given item is used in different places). It would also help us in order to be able to create localized media-related content items (see this issue about that).

Problem is: should this be connected to the media import feature to make sure that file is in the Media folder or should selection be restricted to the Media folder?

Please review the PR which has been created by Jeff for that matter. I asked for a reviewer a couple weeks ago, you can be it ;)
