Description

Use case:
I have a model with file properies (logo) that can be filled by a form, but should also be editable via backend.

Form field configuration:

-
  identifier: logo
  type: ImageUpload
    saveToFileMount: '1:/user_upload/myfolder/'

Finisher configuration:

finishers:
  -
    identifier: SaveToDatabase
    options:
      table: 'tx_myext_domain_model_mymodel'
      mode:  'insert'
      elements:
        logo:
          mapOnDatabaseColumn: 'logo'

My model used to have a TCA configuration for FAL using \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::getFileFieldTCAConfig. But that doesn't work with the form, because the finisher only creates a sys_file entry, so sys_file_reference. Why?
My current solution was to adjust my TCA and templates. But it just doesn't seem right not being able to use the advantages of FAL. Or am I missing some configuration?
