Current behavior

When I add a file greater than 5MB, there will be snackbar pop out and show me the error message "Failed to upload, attachment greater than 5MB", or similar message like that.

I have a few questions:

  1. Is this hard-limit? or it can be configured into different size or completely disable this limit.
  2. Why there is such limit? What underlay component introduce the limit?
  3. if this is hard-limit, can it be removed in the future?
Steps to reproduce
  1. Upload file with size greater than 5MB.
  2. It will pop up error message.
