It would be good to have the ability to:

- Paste content into an Upload field\[1\].
- Add a composer in addition to the textarea, where users have access to the normal suite of features.\[2\]

1. The upload functionality in Discourse posts is great. This one’s more difficult to use, requiring images already be saved to disk for example. 

2. If I want a user to select a dropdown in addition to a post, with the current approach (a textarea) I dramatically decrease their ability to create their post normally; no pasting images, no edit bar, etc.
