Feature Request: FilePicker on Upload scalar

See original GitHub issue

This issue pertains to the following package(s):

  • GraphQL Playground - Electron App
  • GraphQL Playground HTML
  • GraphQL Playground

Feature Request

Now, where apollo-upload-server seems to be established as the de-facto standard when it comes to handling file uploads, it would be awesome to bring up a file picker dialog on Upload scalars. Something like:

playground-filepicker

With something like that in place, it wouldn’t be necessary to build a client application for testing file uploads anymore.
