Kiegel, Colin [kiegel] 2016-11-17: I support this request. However I suggest to remove the additional "label" suggested in the mockups, which is placed in front of the "Select" link. IMO this label is confusing because it looks like something was selected already.
Kiegel, Colin [kiegel] 2016-11-23: How does the repository picker relate to the dialogs for copying/moving/linking objects in the repository? Obviously these dialogs don't use overlays oposed to the repository picker from this request. Will it be a completely independent implementation or will the repository picker also allow non-overlay modes or share some code in another way with these dialogs?
