Comment (by melchoyce):

 Replying to [comment:45 celloexpressions]:
 > I'd say a "media" widget with just an add button (like the customizer
 media control) would probably be better - take the text out of the
 equation (there's also showing the preview vs. code resulting from the
 media modal issue). No need for any other fields inside the control except
 for maybe title.

 That's what I'd originally designed, but now I'm wondering if just
 including a media button in the text widget would make it:
 1. More versatile for users
 2. More familiar to users
 3. Easier to implement
