RE: [whatwg] Review of the 3.16 section and the HTMLInputElementinterface

I do not feel like having the file submission control styled and customized
in any way; submitting a file poses a serious security and privacy risk so I
would not like to see this control disguised as something else.  Just like
an alert window title, it should have a consistent look for all
applications.

This issue seems to be a very recurring and still unsolved problem when
dealing with Web internationalization / multi-language Web Apps.
I would like to suggest this to be reviewed with an editor comment please.

Additionally, it's important if we could decorate separately the file path
text field and the browse button using CSS.
