      Hello testers
      This issue needs to test in html editor and file manager.

      HTML Editor
      1. Adding a picture to html editor with name for example: test.jpg
      2. Adding another picture with the same name by using upload/local/recent/private repository plugins, you should see a dialog pop up asking you want to overwrite/rename or cancel, try all options to see if it works as expected.

      File manager, for example in your private file management page

    Description

      User are not able to:
      1/ delete "uploaded" file
      2/ user can not find out what files were already uploaded
      3/ users can not link again already existing image

      The reason is that there is no way to manage the files that are uploaded to the file area referenced from the text in tinymce editor. Attempts to work around this missing feature (overriding of files, link from forms, etc.) were only creating regressions.

      Possible solution - add a new tab "Used files" to the file picker, this would solve all 3 issues above. I have proposed several different solutions before, but I think this is the best one.
