It would be a great benefit if after browsing to a file and clicking OK in the dialog, I would be presented with the next FILE submit form before I click "Attach".

In other words:
1. Click browse to select file
2. Click OK
3. File form is filled in with path of file to be uploaded
4. A new file form immediately appears below that one enabling me to select a second (third, fourth...) file
5. Once I've selected all files I can click "attach" and all files will be uploaded and attached to the node.

Feature requests should be against the development version - updated to 5.x-dev.

Since the code freeze is in effect, feature requests go against the next development version.

Seems odd it doesn't do this in the first place, especially since the file doesn't actually get uploaded until the node is submitted.
Must be a reason if it didn't make it into D5, D6. . .
