        !             5: This document gives an overview of the enhancement and describes how
        !             6: to add support for other back-end servers or CMSes.

        !            10: 
        !            11: Usage of the enhancement should be practically self-evident. Use the

        !            13: the image to, click "upload", which opens up an upload form, select an

        !            22: support for a few other backends, the enhancement will be enabled by
        !            23: default.
        !            24: 
        !            25: To enable the enhancement include a tag `<uploadbutton>` in the xml
        !            26: for the folder. See plone/kupu_plone_layer/kupucollection.xml.pt for
