Accessibility Improvements for Inserting Files

rthrash commented 9 years ago

As a user that relies on keyboard entry or assistive devices, I would like to be able to insert files/images only using my keyboard so that I can stay focused on creating content and not looking up arcane paths and formatting choices.

Inserting an image currently requires keyboard and mouse interaction, or knowing somewhat of an arcane format. It would be convenient and more accessible to allow making the same choices purely from a keyboard. Possibly:

When on a newline, a keyboard combination (tbd) allows for triggering the + action.
Arrow keys would navigate between the options (right and left arrow keys)
esc would take you back to writing (or clicking off with the mouse)

on a somewhat related note, paste-to-upload-image-from-clipboard support could be nice (currently chrome only)

That would be awesome!
