The attachment slash input has been great thus far, but I've ran into a problem; if a user doesn't have the
Attach Files
permission in the channel they can't upload to the command, thus rendering it unusable if the attachment is a required argument.While this makes sense at first glance, this behaviour is odd to me; the user isn't uploading directly to the channel, they're uploading the attachment for the bot to work with. And if the command is ephemeral, there's even its own
ephemeral-attachments
route it's uploaded to instead of the guild ID. Being able to upload a file to a command regardless of permission makes sense to me considering it has a very explicit usage.I currently work around this by having two optional arguments, one that takes an attachment and another that takes a standard image URL, but this is far from ideal. Thoughts?
