Example Demo Implementation Scenario

A project can install this plugin to enable the following scenario:

In CMS UI, a business user selects Images and a folder (e.g, samples) and click on either Add image... or Add bulk images... menu item.
Each action may show Overwrite existing ... and Publish uploaded ... options.

Optionally, if an event listener is registered, then it may create or update an associated document upon image or asset creation or update as an example advanced scenario:

When an image is uploaded, an associated imageContainer document will be created on each image upload.
A business user may select Documents and move to images folder to see the newly created documents accordingly.
