Yes, It is fully implemented in SimulatedModPythonRequest (without that we
wouldn’t have been able to drop dependency over mod_python and migrate to
mod_wsgi).

:-)
If your HTML form has field called e.g. “foo” of type “file” you will then be
able to do:
req.form[‘foo’].filename to obtain the name.
req.form[‘foo’].file to obtain the open file object, so e.g. you can use
req.form['foo'].file.read() to read its whole content ;-) (but be careful in
this case because if the file that was sent is too big it would fill-up all
the memory :-) ).
Cheers!
