      Description

      Related to ELEMENTS-774 - A user should see a meaningful error notification on the screen when this happens.

      Should we just have a toast? Or should we consider [in general] more contextual feedback messages for errors?
      We should always guarantee that the user sees the message, and for that, the best way is to give feedback where the user is looking at.

      I'd rather give a visual message contextually, where the user is actually trying to drop unsuccessfully a file - instead of informing the user in a different place of the screen.

      It was decided to move on with a toast, as a first step, since it is simpler to implement.
      It should not only inform the user that an error is happening, but it should also specify why is happening 'can only upload x,y,z type of files' somehow leading to the solution.

      This ticket should eventually not only relate to this specific situation but with a global approach regarding errors.
