No, you are not wrong.
It makes lots of sense to standardize behavior that is commonly required in 100%
of
the applications that use a particular API. The problem with file upload
support
is that there are *lots* of different use cases, and it is not clear that such a
standard (which must meet everyone's needs) is feasible.
If you think that you have a good idea for how such an API should be organized,
the
appropriate action would be to submit your ideas to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] so that it can be examined by the expert group
responsible for the servlet spec.
