 * Thanks for this excellent plugin.
 * I have a couple of different google accounts (and therefore google drive accounts).
   Is there a way to change which one is presented when clicking on the “Add Drive
   File” button? If not, how does the plugin decide which Drive account to call?
 * Thanks for your help.

 * That is an excellent question!
 * The default behavior is as follows:
 * Attempt to pick the Google account corresponding to the user’s WordPress email
   address. There may be ways to fool it into picking a different Google account,
   but generally it will be pretty insistent that you login to that account!
 * However, in the Premium (and Enterprise) versions of the plugin, there is an 
   option in Settings -> Google Drive Embedder, in the Advanced Options tab, labelled‘
   Allow user to choose Google Account independently of WordPress email’.
 * If checked, then it will pick whichever Google account is currently logged in–
   and present you with a list to choose from if there are multiple accounts logged
   in. If there are no accounts logged in, it will ask you to log in to one.
 * I hope this helps!
