Description

The kbfs browser in the Android app offers the possibility to upload image and video files. It would be nice to have an upload function for files in general, e.g. via the intent ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT without restriction to a special mime type.

Research direction

Start in the Android app's KBFS browser and inspect the existing image and video upload flow, including its ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT intent and MIME-type restriction. Done means the browser can select and upload general non-media files while preserving the existing media upload behavior.
