When I drag a bunch of files at once to upload them, I then have to go back and put in line breaks manually so they do not wrap. This is a bit tricky because it’s all HTML code.

(aside: is there not a way to make these uploads more user-friendly within markdown? eg just show the resulting URL which then converts automagically to the format below if it’s not a file that can be displayed in a onebox?)

Replication steps are easy

1. upload bunch of files at once via drag/drop
2. see results which look like this screenshot

Sure @zogstrip can you add linebreaks after each uploaded file? I assume this is pretty easy?
