Ease the transition to Media: save image uploads in CKEditor 5 as media entities when media is enabled?

Problem/Motivation

If all new image uploads in CKEditor 5 actually resulted in image Media entities being created, they'd all show up in the media library. That'd be one way to make the transition from "plain files" to "media" easier; it'd at minimum already list every image uploaded through CKEditor 5 in the Media Library.

  • Needs tests

    The change is currently missing an automated test that fails when run with the original code, and succeeds when the bug has been fixed.

  • Needs product manager review

    It is used to alert the product manager core committer(s) that an issue represents a significant new feature, UI change, or change to the "user experience" of Drupal, and their signoff is needed. If an issue significantly affects the usability of Drupal, use Needs usability review instead (see the governance policy draft for more information).

  • Usability

    Makes Drupal easier to use. Preferred over UX, D7UX, etc.

    This issue is being reviewed by the kind folks in Slack, #needs-review-queue-initiative. We are working to keep the size of Needs Review queue [2700+ issues] to around 400 (1 month or less), following Review a patch or merge request → as a guide.

    Can the MR be updated for 10.1 please
    Also was tagged for tests

    What is the proposed solution exactly? Pretend I know nothing of media.

    I think #17 was well-intentioned but a wrong turn in hindsight. The issue summary very clearly explains what the problem is, and even includes a GIF.

    The MR is still totally viable. It needs refinement (and tests) for sure, but this alone would single-handedly make Drupal's Media Library much more valuable 😅
