Using the angular backoffice we've developed an import dashboard and want to allow the appropriate editor access to upload files for import to a specific location.

We've got this working by using the angular ngFileUpload by Danial Farid however, in adding this module to umbraco we've had to use a workaround to inject the module in as referenced on Our. This has the rather annoying side effect of stopping the already implemented version of file uploads (for example in media uploading images/pdfs etc) working.

So my question is, is there a way of reusing the existing angular file upload control for our own custom dashboards that allow us to put files where we choose (rather than showing up in media)

Or if not,

then allow us to inject a module such as ngFileUpload without breaking the existing umbraco/blueimp implementation of the file upload control?
