While I love the rich image set readily available to me, I'd like to include custom images (my drawings, photos…) in draw.io documents. Is it possible?
I've tried CTRL+V with a clipboard image but with no success.

Yes, you can now use the draw.io Google Docs addon to directly embed a draw.io diagram within a Google Doc. This is the listing for the addon, but it's easier to open a Google Doc, select "add-ons", then "get add-ons" from the menu:
A panel of add-ons will then display. In the search box type "draw.io" and click "install" to add the draw.io plugin.
This now works without the plugin, but you must use one of the special tree layout containers under Shapes > Advanced. Look for "Tree Container", "Horizontal Tree Layout", "Mindmap". I've highlighted them in the screenshot below.
To port your existing trees simply paste them into one of the tree layout containers.
I came across your question while looking for help myself. The blog post about trees was updated in May to say that the plugin is no longer needed and trees can be added using shapes under Advanced. I tried the obvious ones (e.g. "Central Idea", "Branch") which didn't work as expected. Eventually I stumbled on this post which clued me in to the special containers.
Hope this helps!
