> I do not understand the reasoning for that, as a saved draft is not sent to anyone

But I can be! Just try it out please:

* open a new message
* add a cloudFile
* save as draft
* close the draft

* reopen the draft
* delete the upload
* make changes to other parts of the draft
* close without saving (simulating a "oh, I do not like these changes, lets re-start with the saved state")

* re-open the draft (link is back!)
* send the message without deleting the link
* the receiving end will be able to download the link, as it has not been deleted from the server

You may call this a change in behaviour, which you do not like, but it is not a regression.

I am open for changes to cater for security focused users, who want to enforce deletion even if it could cause dead links.
