Comment (by RDall):

 This would be such a huge win for people who put a lot of media in their
 sidebar.

 The vast majority of users I have seen use [https://en-
 ca.wordpress.org/plugins/black-studio-tinymce-widget/ Black Studio's
 famous Visual Editor] just for image placement alone. This widget would
 remove that extra step work around that a lot of users don't know about
 and "I wish I knew this six months ago" I have heard more then a few times
 would also be reduced.

 This would also be incorporated into the customizer visual editing as
 well. So users could see the image in the sidebar before publishing?
