[ARCHIVED] Why does the new RCE not allow the selection of more than one file?

[jeffbailey]

When teachers are adding an assignment they appreciate the ability to be able to add more than one file that used to be the default choice.  Having to click 2 times for each file you want to add seems to be excessive.
