Vizier has a way to upload datasets, but not raw files. This creates a challenge, particularly for hosted instances of Vizier, since we need to resort to awkward workarounds like loading data files (e.g. pictures, etc...) in a Python or Scala cell. Also, there is an export file, so having a file upload cell would provide symmetry.
A few thoughts:
[ ] New Command: Input: List of uploaded (file artifact ID, artifact name) pairs; Output: Artifacts for each uploaded file.
[ ] New Editor: D&D file upload area. Allow multiple files to be uploaded. Set up a delete file.
[ ] Option to support 'Zip', 'Tar', and/or 'Gzip' files?
