While I disagree with this method, I want to point out one little irking 
unresolved issue.
<input type="file" hidden> is becoming a real thing.

I don't think it's a big issue, but since a11y peoples are on this 
thread, I do want to point it out.
This is how I'd handle it, in my current code.

<button onclick="file.click()" role="file button">Add files</button>
<input type="file" id="file" hidden />
