FileList does not follow the requirements from Web IDL:

Specifically you mean:
1. FileList's WebID definition should show that the getter returns a
nullable type AND
2. Supported property indices should be defined.
Thanks for these clarifications; I've done them.
I think FileList should talk less about selected files and more about
being a collection or list of File objects. That way it can be reused
in the future without people tripping over its current narrow definition.
It is a collection of File objects, but they must be user selected.
HTMLInputElement and DataTransfer don't make a sufficient virtue of user
selection, so I feel it useful to keep it a part of FileList.
Should FileList be able to hold Blob objects as well?
Don't think so.
