Although several bugs have been fixed in the Struts multipart handling since
Struts 1.0.x, there are still a number of issues, some of which will not be
easy to resolve. (Not all of these issues have been logged in Bugzilla.)

Meanwhile, a FileUpload project has appeared in the Commons sandbox. This
implementation apparently originated in Turbine, and is claimed to be
"relatively mature". Although I have not yet tested it, examination of the
source code leads me to believe that this implementation is significantly
more robust that the current Struts implementation.

Therefore, I propose to develop a CommonsMultipartRequestHandler which wraps
the Commons FileUpload implementation. Initially, this would provide an
alternative to the current Struts implementation, while in the longer term,
it would allow Struts to get out of the multipart business by devolving to
Commons.

Comments, please?
