The method to disguise a file input control as described is and should remain a dirty trick; if the user agent allows it, some add-on should detect it and offer a warning. Allowing semantic customization could be interpreted as encouragement.

Just like an alert window title, it should have a consistent look for all applications.

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.
