Django just doesn't control these things. Read my answer in this very
thread, it's http-server and browser that don't let it happen.
Umm.. I have not done any research on this, but if that was the case projects like http://sean.treadway.info/demo/upload/ and http://encodable.com/filechucker/ wouldn't have been possible. May be some webservers do not support it, and maybe there would be some issues related to terminating connection if file size is larger, but having this may be good.
No time for investigating it right now, but existence of those projects imply its doable, even if its a hack, atleast on some servers.
