[TYPO3-dev] bug in context menu of icon of image fields

[Martin Kutschker]

Hi!

The file type icon of the images in an image field has a context menu. 
The menu has the entries "rename", "cut" and "delete", but no "copy" or 
"info". But that is not the point.

The point is that all operations should affect the record being edited 
and it isn't working anyway. The reason is that those files are 
typically within upload/ and there is a check the matches aganst the 
file mounts. Ouch!

So yo get an ugly and even wrong error message. Wrong because it always 
says "Target was not a directory!" but this is a file operation. The 
reason for this oddity seems to be the fact that the path to the file is 
checked amongst other things for existence and the the same error 
message is shown for all errors.

Question: did this context menu ever work in previous versions of TYPO3?

And how shall it be fixed? Or shall it simply be removed?
