Why not launch a javascript event when an attachment is added to a page? If you are in edit mode and you have an editor listening to such an event, it can also include the attachment in the editor (if it's an image), etc. Right now we already have the feature of adding an attachment from view mode. You don`t really need to be in an editor to attach a file to a page so that`s why I saw this as a more generic feature of the page itself. Anyway, just an idea.

hmm are you sure? I’m not aware of this feature. I just tested it and it didn’t work for me on 8.0M2.
Tried it and it seems to work only if you drop the file exactly over the file upload field ("Browse" button or "No files selected" label, i.e. field with id "xwikiuploadfile"). This definitely needs to be improved.
Personally, I would prefer we go full page Drag & Drop support, i.e. if a file is dropped in the XWiki browser tab, a popup asks the user if he wants to attach the dropped files to the current XWiki document. Something like GitHub is doing when you can drop a file anywhere in the tab of an XWiki repository (and a commit form will show up for you to fill details).
I agree that this would be nice too. However, it doesn't mean you don't need it in edition mode. Having to switch back and forth between view and edit because you forgot to upload a file would be tedious. It's needed in both places.
+1 to that.
Maybe you`ve missed my next reply: "My point here was that maybe we could make it a page-level feature and not an editor-level feature that each editor would have to implement.”
I had read that but I misunderstood it as meaning that you were suggesting that it shouldn’t be a feature in edit mode while you were just saying that it shouldn’t an *editor* feature.
Personally I think we need editor-level drag and drop because there are 2 different use cases: * being able to insert an image in the content of a page * being able to add an image as an attachment
And whenever the content of a page is affected, then it has to be in an editor since that requires making modification to the content and then letting the user make adjustements and save the content.

It was about dropping a file in an XWiki tab, regardless of the mode you are in (edit/view). That`s why I said you don`t need to necessarily implement it in editor X or Y and it could be a feature of the XWiki page itself.
Thanks, Eduard
Thanks -Vincent
PS: I’ve opened http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-13133 for the issue with drag and drop on chrome.
