So instead of fixing the web, we're "fixing" the spec (and thus implementing
fakepath in browsers)?

Maybe someone from Opera could let us know which sites caused them to do
this? Was it many, as with Microsoft?
I did a quick search through our bugs and found this site that breaks if
only the filename is returned because there's an onsubmit script that
checks the value for the presence of either a slash or backslash.

Specifically, the following code:
if((strFileName.indexOf("\\") == -1) && (strFileName.indexOf("/") == -1))
{
alert("Please do not type your filename. Click Browse and upload your
zip file.");
document.fileupload.UploadFileData.focus();
return false; }
