             Bug #: 30244
           Summary: Use HTML5 FileAPI to read individual files for upload
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: UploadWizard
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

    Classification: Unclassified


We already use HTML5's FileApi for thumbnails when available (bug 29248), but
we could also perform the actual uploads by reading via FileApi and then
pushing up.

This would be a requirement for resumable downloads (bug 29250)

and even without changing protocols should enable better upload progress
feedback since we can follow the progress of an XHR submission better than an
iframe (bug 24759, bug 30242).

Would also allow implementing multi-file uploads (bug 26502) without changing
server-side API support to handle multiple files in one POST (bug 16751 etc).
