Comment #10 on issue 6003 by lcamtuf: FEATURE REQUEST: File upload by URL http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=6003
Commenting strictly on the security part - entry as an editable field directly on a web page would indeed be a very bad idea, as Adam noted; but this does not necessarily mean the feature could not be implemented e.g. as a clearly labeled extension of the "file open" dialog, or other interactive widget. That was my reading of the original proposal above (though it might be read both ways). (The fact that Microsoft permits this already, but does so in a half-baked and scary way, means any risk we can think of is already there; if anything, exposing the feature through a more clear and dedicated UI would probably be a good thing.) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
