Description

Uploading of all files and pictures in file gallery root is the default for adding files to blogs. This tends to lead to a real messed up gallery. And leaving the user alone with navigation towards a special folder starting with gallery root every time will not work - nor did ever 😕.
Wouldn't it be nice to have the possibility to predefine a default folder for some functions - i.e. "Default folder for files and images of this blog" in every blogs "General options" tab? Giving there a path will lead to (or create, if not present) a subfolder into file gallery that will become the default path of every upload dialog in this blog.
In similar ways, default paths could be imagined to be added to a number of other functions.

To Do:
• Add a new property "DefaultFilePath" to blogs.
• Add a new input filed of type text/file path to general setting in blogs. Save into DefaultFilePath of blog
• "Save to…" file picker of "choose or upload images" or "choose or upload files" (which in fact is the same function) in blog editor will use this value as preset path.
• Tidy up: Reduce blog editors menu entries "choose or upload images" and "choose or upload files" to a single "upload image or file"
