Did I miss something? It also seems to be encouraging wilful violation of the FileAPI spec which clearly states that File objects don't return path info [1]. Having a may-level conformance criterion that supposes to override a must-level criterion in another spec, but no strong compat. requirement, doesn't seem like the optimum path to interoperability or sanity of people trying to understand and implement the platform. Is there any reason this paragraph shouldn't be considered a bug in HTML? [1] http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/FileAPI/#dfn-file
