Description
Parent epic: #36004
Finding
The audit reports UVE drag/drop image upload failures do not show an error toast or comparable visible error.
Report reference: dotcms-ui/src/app/portlets/edit-ema/edit-ema-editor/components/edit-ema-editor.component.ts:1627-1689
Potential impact
Users may believe an upload is still pending or simply failed to act, with no visible feedback explaining the failed upload.
Suggested validation
Force a drag/drop image upload failure in UVE and confirm whether any user-visible error appears.
Possible fix
Surface a toast or inline error using the existing UVE/editor notification pattern for upload failures.
Caveat
This was AI-found by Claude from .scratch/audit/REPORT.md. Please perform secondary validation of correctness, severity, and value before actioning.

Research direction
Start at dotcms-ui/src/app/portlets/edit-ema/edit-ema-editor/components/edit-ema-editor.component.ts:1627-1689 and force a drag/drop image upload failure in UVE. Compare the behavior with the existing UVE/editor notification pattern. Done means a failed upload produces a visible toast or inline error instead of failing silently.
