This issue should be replicated in phonegap-android and
phonegap-blackberry-webworks as well.

Yeah, I've been digging deeper and deeper and the callback from any fo the
capture methods just return an array of MediaFiles.
I propose the following:
The W3C states that instead of an array the files should be returned in a
FileList object, each file itself should inherit from a Blob which has direct
access to the filesystem through the browser. I should be able to append the
image I get back from a capture to a XHR-2 request, currently that is not the
case.

In short, whatever represents the captures media file should be 100% compatible
with the W3C File object.

@shazron is there a better way to discuss this issue than opening individual
issues in each Phonegap type? I would prefer to keep the discuss in one place.
(I just happen to be doing iOS stuff, only reason I opened it here)

I'm afraid filing duplicate issues will have to do for now, so we can track the
issues as "todos" for each. For discussion, you could paste a link to the iOS
one and suggest that the discussion should be there.
