The html5 filesystem API allows you to add files from the "real"
filesystem of the clients machine to the "sandboxed" filesystem in the
browser.
The browser can then send files in the "sandbox" to the server or
manipulate those directly.

To add files to the sandboxed filesystem one can use drag&drop or file
selection dialog.

webkit based broswers like Chrome support directories too:
