 Thanks for the additional feedback @pento! I will try to address your
 concerns in an upcoming patch.

 Regarding the choice of Backbone here - I'm open to exploring other
 technologies such as Vue or React, however I have a feeling Backbone is
 the right tool for this task. Using Backbone makes sense here because buys
 us a lot of built in functionality: we leverage syncing and the Backbone
 JS client, and leverage collections to handle management of the draft
 list. I find the backbone code here straightforward to understand and
 follow, this is a much simpler feature than the media library. What
 advantages might we hope to find by switching to React or Vue?
