Hello, While implementing upload control in XSLTForms (http://www.agencexml.com/xsltforms/uploads.xml), I was wondering in what real use cases it can be used. With xsi:anyURI type, the server only gets a filename (usually prefixed by "fakedpath") for security reasons. So, only the short name (not the full path) is meaningful. With xsi:hexBinary and xsi:base64Binary, the full content of the chosen file is copied and expanded (2 times or 1.67 times respectively) within an instance. Uploading big files will require time (and memory) and a progress bar with a cancel option would be useful and, then, submission will also take time... So, what are the effective or expected use cases for the upload control? Thank you for your answers! -Alain
