Title:
  Choose internal image in TinyMCE without attaching it first

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently (Mahara 1.6.0dev), you can attach an image to a journal
  entry and then choose it within TinyMCE for display inthe entry
  itself. Though a nice way of not having to know the URL of the image,
  it's still cumbersome and you always see the "Attached file" at the
  bottom of a journal entry.

  Furthermore, this way doesn't work in text boxes and users always have
  to find the URL of the image in their files area first before they can
  work with it.

  It would be better if we were able to list the images in a drop-down
  menu in TinyMCE all the time for users to choose comfortably without
  having to attach them to a journal entry first or to a text box (if we
  used the smae behavior as for journal entries). If a drop-down is not
  a possibility, maybe there is something else?

  Thinking further, the infrastructure of the image picker code might
  then also be used to select internal Mahara URLs instead again of
  copying them manually. But that's another bug report (bug #1038579).
