Thanks for taking the lead on this Arun!
Since we eventually need to show we've "satisfied its [=the spec's]
relevant technical requirements" [1], did the Web API WG do some
related requirements work? If yes, where can we find that work?

All,
On behalf of Mozilla, I'd like to take over as editor of the
FileUpload spec., which was actually once assigned to me quite some
time ago :)
Of course, I think that
form.getDataAsString();
form serialization is out of scope of this particular
specification, but I think other things like Blobs (as per the
Google Gears proposal -- maybe a File interface can have a getBlobs
on it) are probably in, as well as some other interface proposals
by Opera, etc. Security makes or breaks all of this, so I'll start
with the restrictions we've put on this as a strawperson. After
talking to Jonas, I also think "File Download" should be in scope,
again modulo security which, following a straw person, is a welcome
group discussion.
I've gotten CVS access from Mike. I'd like till the end of the
week (next week) to turn around a a first revision.
