Comment:

 Hi @andres99, thanks for the bug report.

 I don't think we should do this. As you mention, the media won't exist on
 the server until the upload finishes, so we would be giving a link that
 isn't usable yet. Also, uploads can fail for many reasons (blacklisted
 filetype, upload space, etc.) so this could lead a user to a dead end.

 Suggest close on this one.
