Hi Michael, thanks for the additional context - I just wanted to make sure I
follow completely.

Do you mean to say that
1) you disagree with Mark that Tomcat _maybe_ could go beyond the spec if it
permits or
2) that the spec doesn't permit it?

I'm also not positive I understand your proposal to 

> Use an external Commons FileUpload

Do you mean to say we should opt to receive a bare HttpRequest and put it
through Commons FileUpload ourselves instead of through the Framework, and then
make use of some kind of configuration or extension options? 

---

As for your comments of Spring Boot - I believe it would, from that piece of
documentation, allow us to integrate our own Multipart resolver and handle all
of this ourselves, but as an application developer, that doesn't seem to be a
very enticing prospect.

---

Since we are in a situation to do that, we have chosen to take a pragmatic
approach and use multipart/form-data, even though I would have preferred
multipart/mixed from the semantic descriptions, so if you believe there's no
further interest in this, feel free to close.

It was surprising to me that other multipart types aren't in the scope of
Tomcat here, but if that's the situation I thank you for taking the time to
enlighten me at the very least =)
