These are two different things: One is a decision on a case-by-case basis, the other is a general decision. If a user simply doesn't want to share images publicly on the web, that user should have the ability to switch the feature off instead of having to choose "send image directly" each time they drag an image into a chat.
Maybe we can have an element "Do not use image sharing" in the select box and default to that, and as long as this element is selected, do not show the menu but always send file directly?

I've integrated the library with text-ui and used it to share images to the choosed service when dragging it to the text-ui.
