New users who have no Wikimedia experience will not have any understanding what
"Watch this file" means or how to meaningfully derive any value from this
feature. We should:

* pick sensible defaults
* make defaults customizable through preferences
* avoid complicating the UI with options that only overwhelm, not help, new
users.

If it's usually sensible to watch every upload, we can make this the default
for new users, and a preference for all users. 

Is there really a use case for offering this option on a per-file basis? How
common is the case that you'll want to un-select a specific file, and is it not
adequately served by un-watching it after your upload?
