I'd had to upload some files which I received by mail. When uploading files with the Sailfish browser, the content picker dialog shows the category Documents in which I'm missing downloaded e-mail attachments which show up in the documents application.
It seems to me, that the documents application shows files from more locations than ~/Documents
. For examle, e-mail attachments from ~/Downloads/mail_attachments
.
What about adding the category Downloads to the content picker? This would allow to access e-mail attachments (and other downloads) for uploading or as e-mail attachment.
Sure, it's possible to make at least some attachments to appear in the Documents category by moving them from ~/Downlaods
to ~/Documents
unsing the shell or the file manager. But having the downloads available in the content picker would be way more convenient.
