Hm, looking through the source, there are many many places where PDF files are treated differently than strictly image filetypes (PNG, etc.). This makes sense in the context of multi-page documents. 

Still, I like using PDFs for vector plots... I suppose I should also confess to the following modification I've made to my ELOG for treating PDFs like images in drag-and-drop uploading.
