Public bug reported:

When adding an existing image (or file) to a group page the default
workflow has poor usability.

Actual:
The file browser starts at the user's own personal files. Once this is switched to group files it even more confusingly defaults to the first group alphabetically that they user is a member of, but that isn't clear - you then need to click on the groups dropdown menu to select which group you want to choose a file from.

Expected:
When browsing for a file to add to a group page the initial default should be the file repository for that group - the user can then change this if they want to use a file from elsewhere but this should be the starting point.

Tested on 17.04.3testing but exists in earlier versions.
