Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Heavy images are being uploaded to websites, but we should make it seamless for folks to compress images without having to do an additional step.

What feature would you like to improve

Currently, we recommend an image compressor before uploading images.

Describe the solution you'd like

Perhaps a plugin would be useful?

See also: WordPress includes default JPG compression. Should we push this further to get better image compression?

WP Medial Folder plugin recommends ImageRecycle as an image compression plugin. There are likely fees associated with this since they limit the upload by overall image size uploaded.
