I think this could work as follows:
* The admin registers a mounted network drive in the admin page of XWiki and gives it a
name (this is a drive mounted on the server machine where XWiki is running)
* When in the WYSIWYG editor, when inserting an external image/link/etc, it also lists
registered network drive names and when you click on it it opens a home made browser
dialog (we would use File.list() to get the list of files - this will work only with a
mounted drive - I guess there are some specific network protocols to autodiscover
resources for ex with \\UNC but that looks more complex).
