Comment (by azaozz):

 The right way to do this would be to decide on the workflow, UX and UI
 first and then code it. It seems adding "just-another-checkbox" there
 won't be the optimal solution.

 Some possibilities are:
  - Two insert image buttons at the bottom of each image properties box,
 "insert (and continue)" and "insert and close".
  - Adding "insert all images" button under the image properties boxes,
 above the Insert Gallery box.
  - A checkbox next to the Insert Image button (the proposed solution
 above) that would keep the gallery popup open after inserting the image.
 IMHO this is the most awkward option, still needs two clicks, etc.

 If we go with "insert all images" the user most likely will have to edit
 each individual image later to add captions, titles, alt, etc.
