File Upload Progress Bar
-------------------------
Uploaded files should be uploaded to High Levels storage directly from the file upload block, not waiting for the end of the form when the the user presses the submit button to upload all the files resulting in a too-long wait for the submission to complete.
When a user adds a file to the file-upload block, there should also be a file upload progress bar showing the file upload progress. Visible user feedback is the name of the game for good UX design.
Pleaes see my linked screen recording at the bottom for example of how this should work.
It is not good in terms of UX to leave the file uploads to the end of the form, users may navigate away before the uploads are complete, and thus before the form is submitted, depending on the size of files being uploaded. There is also no progress bar at the submit stage. I belive a progress bar after submitting the form would also be a welcome improvement to the user experience.
-------------------------
To determine the filetypes we want in our File Upload fields ourselves.
-------------------------
For example I want to receive image files. These include:
jpg, jpeg, png, gif, bmp, webp, psd, pdf, heic, arw
Currently there is a choice for jpg/jpeg, png, gif and pdf.
I do not want to wait for GHL devs to implement the images types that I need, something that may never happen. Just let us determine what types we want.
The 'all' option is not a good ro acceptable option to use when you just want images type.
When you use this option and a user tries to upload files, he will get all sorts of prompts from the browser, like to grant access to the Microphone for example. Why should a user grant this access when they want to upload a psd file, it makes no sense and provokes concerns over privacy and reasonable permissions.

Multiple File Upload option is currently broken - fix it
-------------------------
As it is currently implemented, it is neither clear nor intuitive what a user should do in order to upload mutiple files. Also, if they have mutiple filesin different folders, it is impossible to upload those into this field as the field expects you to choose mutiple files in one go to upload, and does not allow you to select files one by one, to upload each file one at a time. If that is not clear please view my screen recording here:
Uploading files should not need an extensive tutorial and come with such extreme limitations, it needs to work in a way that your average user can use and understand.
