[whatwg] fileList vs files

2009-03-26 Thread Biju

   I have a poor memory,
   hence not good in spelling,
   if there is not much gain with a change,
   i wish every thing follow a similar pattern
   and with short spelling,

type=file multiple

Can we call it files instead of fileList, this will make it
consistent with existing names like

arguments
document.links
selection_element.options
document.plugins
document.embeds
document.anchors
document.forms
document.applets
document.images

I agree that the property should be called .files. However given that
we don't have any property at all specced yet, it feels a little bit
early to start debating the name :)
