Re: [directory-upload] This should be part of whatwg/html (#15)

In general the spec as-is does not separate out pieces clearly. I've mentioned some of the issues over in #17, but it patches MANY different places of the spec _in the definition of the directory IDL attribute_, which is crazy. It patches [rendering](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#the-input-element-as-a-file-upload-control). It patches the `files` IDL attribute. It patches the activation behavior, without concern for the mutable vs. immutable state. And it talks about concepts like " triggers the default click behavior of the input element," which do not exist.

This is again just a five-minute review.

An actual patch would turn up a lot of these issues, as it tried to fit into the existing framework. The PR review by the editors would help fix the rest.
