I'm more concerned about non-mouse users. Is there any way to insert the image tag without having to drag with a mouse? There are a not-inconsiderable number of users for whom mouse use in general and drag and drop in particular are difficult if not impossible. It is possible, albeit awkward, to use the current (1.5+) upload system to upload an image and insert the tag into a post. The previous version (< 1.5) was better, because it didn't interrupt the workflow and could insert the tag into the post for you. This new version allows the upload without the mouse, but it seems to be IMPOSSIBLE to take that last step and get the code into the post. This is a MASSIVE step backwards for usability, making WordPress completely UNUSABLE for a whole class of people. This is not really very good at all for an application which purports to be standards complient. It seems that the usability report published earlier this year has now been completely forgotten in favour of sexy WYSIWYG interfaces. I won't even get into the fact that the WYSIWYG interface still insists on REMOVING code that I add to my post!
