Yes, that's a bit strange, but for the moment it works. I have committed 
it that way.

How about introducing a new interface for the value of an upload widget,
lets say UploadData:
UploadData {
   /** Return true if it is newly uploaded data */
   boolean isNew();
   /** Returns the part if isNew returns true, otherwise null. */
   Part getPart();
   InputStream getInputStream();
   String getMimeType();
}
This would also allow to distinguish between new and unmodified uploads.
Good idea.
