This sounds complicated!

I missed the beginning of this thread. Is this about not easily being able
to find files on your computer to upload?

Have you tried using Path Copy? It adds an option to the context menu to
copy the full path and name of a file to the clipboard, instead of copying
the actual file itself. Then you can just paste it into the upload field and
accept, without having to browse for the filename. It saves me a lot of
time!

Path Copy can be downloaded from:

And if this wasn't the issue in question, please forgive me! I have entirely
too much mail.
