Hi @chandlerprall, What do you think of displaying the "can't accept this file / file not supported" case next to the attachment icon? With errorsBut then I was thinking what would happen if we have errors? This would create a weird interaction. The text suddenly appear in the middle of the icons and push the errors to the right... 🤔 So we could omit the errors in case there are a few. And once the user focus the text area the "file not supported" disappears: What do you think? |

I like it! Any dragndrop errors would happen apart from syntax errors, so it wouldn't suddenly be displaying both. I don't think it would provide any confusion? Do we want to leave the message around after the drop is over? (either by moving mouse out, or by attempting the drop on the component). We would need to for that tooltip, but it feels a little off as well to just leave an error message around that the user can't dismiss. One thing I meant to add in the original post: we can know the MIME type of the unsupported file, though not its extension. E.g. we could message "2 files unsupported: image/gif text/csv". Might be too cluttered though. The tooltip, if we go that way, can be populated by the file handlers so listing extensions there would be okay. |

If we click the error, retry to attach, or focus the text area the error should go away. |

@chandlerprall I'm taking a look. |

I've merged the base markdown editor branch in, so the doc pages have moved. |

Did a quick a11y test — everything seems pretty good!
Tested dragging and dropping accepted and not accepted files. Tested keyboard controls to make sure nothing was broken. (Only tested in Chromium right now.)
Only thing I would recommend that could help the experience some, is to highlight the text that was inserted. This will make finding it much easier with a screen reader (and likely for not-screen reader users as well).

I've removed that code; it means the file selection modal doesn't limit the file choices, but now all browsers react to all combinations of supported/unsupported file drops the same. About Safari not turning red/disabled when dragging unsupported files, turns out Safari does not provide |

Summary
Adds proper drag&drop handling to the markdown editor.
There is some clumsiness around the text insertion as it naively injects the markdown string at the cursor location. Next steps are to properly allow e.g. block inserts
