I agree that it’s a symptom of having a more complex editor more akin to word processing rather than social media… _but_ it might be worth having two buttons in the instances of files other than images being allowed: the camera for images and the paperclip for other files?

It would probably be fine if they still opened the same upload dialogue, but it could make both actions clearer.
