It could be super useful, just drag and drop the pics, easy and fast.
in fact, redactor have html uploader, that would be super useful to upload more pictures easily in the description. but it seems this feature is disabled..
html5 works great in mobile devices, is very easy upload pictures.
please consider implement this. (product pictures and make it work also in redactor to post pictures easily to in the description)
Not speaking about actual technology behind feature, but as told earlier in some other thread, most modern places like ebay, photobucket, dropbox allow adding all pictures in bulk, not one by one..
cs-cart image handling is very custom driven and completely tailored around their existing UI of file/server/url. All of the functions expect to look for their specific naming conventions for the _FILES data and would take considerable refactoring to use a different method.

All competitors already know exactly how to do that. oh, wait, probably they change things in the code!! they must be wrong!! [i.off]

It seems is more fun create and fix bugs forever than consider improve things. This is my last suggestion. Certainly make suggestions here is just a waste of time.
