Description Lucas Hokanson 2013-08-22 20:25:17 UTC 
It would be extraordinarily useful to mimic Imgur.com's clipboard based uploader.  Upon visiting the upload page, you would simply Paste - command/control v or click a button to use your clipboard's contents.  This would then upload the file and return to you the standard file:____ page.  

In addition to this, if this functionality is built it, it would even more useful to streamline this into the page editor as well. A simple button click could pop up a prompt and upon upload return the proper image reference in your article.

There's an ambition to add this to VisualEditor in time - see bug 37932, which I've added as a see also - but not sure on plans for doing this for the regular wikitext editor.

I'm going to move this to upload wizard I suppose.
