Dropzone breaks original file order

Hi.

Let's say we have to upload the 100 files from the long trip, when the order (datetime) of taking the photo plays some important role.

Using original Drupal's Media Library mutliple upload, we've got the exact file order from a desktop folder (some logic order).

Unfortunately, using Dropzone the order is broken because it uses some "first come first served" mechanism - you can see it when displaying "V" icon on the thumbnail.

So it's usually random - useless, I would say.

Is there any chance for additional config to turn off this "first come first served" order?

Thanks for your work!

Szy.

    Since this module is actually using the original DropzoneJS code, I would expect such feature to exist in there first.
    It seems that we play with the configuration option autoProcessQueue or parallelUploads (default: 2), the problem would be solved. Could you, as a first step, validate that with these options enabled the code works as you want it to? And if yes, is it a viable solution?
