Ability to Choose Document Name and Description when Uploading Multiple Attachments

When adding multiple attachments at once, the document names and descriptions cannot be changed before they are uploaded. The document name and description just gets defaulted to the filename. It would be nice to be able to change the document name and description of each attachment like you can with a single attachment.

    Brilliant suggestion! The ability to upload multiple attachments has been great. I hope the name and description change can follow suit.

    This would be very helpful. Sometimes the name of our attachments need to be different from the file name.
