This is my new favorite feature, thank you! 😃 I’ll be testing out and will report any issues I may come up with; here is the first one:

I’m trying a simple form with an upload field, but the uploads field just errors:

> Sorry, there was an error uploading my-image-1.jpg. Please try again.

My upload field:

```yaml
- type: upload
  id: screenshots
  attributes:
    file_types: ".jpg, .png, .gif"
    allow_multiple: true
    label: "Screenshots"
    description: "If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your issue."

```

1. I fill out the form for all required fields, including the composer Title field.
2. Click on the “Upload” button, select a valid image file.
3. Upload fails, and modal shows up to display the error.

I also checked the settings; the `jpg` file extension is in the authorized extensions list.
