That sounds reasonable, but in those web forms (email, forum attachments, even
on bugzilla here), no file is actually uploaded until the form is submitted.
Since that process is actually completed, it makes sense to disable further
uploads to cause the user to look to the next steps in the process of
completing the Semantic Form.

One issue that arises is when images are uploaded but no semantic data is
applied to them, is they can be "lost" if they're supposed to be semantically
organized and findable. 

Allowing the user to upload a different file is not prevented. They just need
to click whatever link brought them to the Semantic Form again. Of course there
are other ways too, namely the ordinary MediaWiki upload system. Off the top of
my head, I can't think of a situation where an SF single-field upload system
would be preferable for repeated use than either the plain upload system, or
one of the multi-upload extensions.

What do you think?
