At present, when importing multiple images at once from locally stored files, using drag and drop, the images are imported in random order rather than sequentially, in the same order the files are stored.
This means when importing multiple images where order is vital, they have to be imported individually.
Use case: I frequently import large PPT presentations (each slide is saved as a JPG). These slides are saved in numerical order. But when importing to Roam, their import order is random. The only way to ensure the original order is maintained is by importing the slides manually. With anything more than 5 slides, this is a huge time consumer.
When importing images to Roam, it would be extremely helpful if files could be uploaded in the order they were saved in the local directory. Or, alternatively, provide an option to order the files before upload.
