Re the image selection:
* It would be much much better to see the images before choosing them
(the preview comes too late). You cannot choose an image on its name
alone that's too hard.
* What is the camera icon doing? Is it just an image?
* How do I enter advanced parameters for images?
Apart from this it looks good to me but I still have a small
preference for 3 since
- as a user I prefer to see all options to understand where I'll find
the feature I'm looking for
- it's one click less
Re your arguments below we can have the same with option 3.
But I would follow the others if everyone thinks 4 is better.
Thanks

In a previous thread we've discussed about
how to add a link in the
WYSIWYG editor, and more generally, how to browse the wiki from a
WYSIWYG dialog box (See http://markmail.org/message/tyxrcr24w3n6m2pn
for more details).
After some thinking and a discussion with Laurent Lunati, I'd like to
suggest a 3rd way of browsing the wiki from the WYSIWYG: an enhanced
tree menu.
After some more thinking and discussion with Laurent Lunati I've made
a mockup of a 4th wiki explorer :
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/NewWysiwygEditorWikiExplorer#H42…
It combines the best of the tree and wizard proposals :
* Easy to use: users are guided throughout the process, one action
at a time
* The dialog size is fixed, action buttons are always at the same
position on screen
* The dialog doesn't looked oversized compared to the WYSIWYG
* Small footprint: can be used even on low resolution displays
* Since it's a wizard it's highly extensible
* Scalable : we can have multiple wikis + spaces (even a space
hierarchy)
* Allow to display parent/child relationships between pages (thus
allowing to handle a lot of pages in a space)
* Allows the user to see where he is currently located in the wiki
(default selection)
Here's my +1 for 4).
ps: I consider that the discussion about the position of the add page
/ add spaces buttons is not over.
