Hi romaine. From what I can read, you do not like the upload wizard for some reason. Can you please be more (or rather *very*) precise in what is wrong with it, and Point to the relevant bug reports in http://bugzilla.Wikimedia.org that document these issues so that there is just the slightest chance the currently apparently blocking issues can be addresseed by those who should.
