Recently, using the Deft project, I created a multi-file uploader Flash component for DojoX. Shortly thereafter, it came to my attention that this functionality is to be crippled in version 10 of the Flash player by Adobe due to security concerns. When removing functionality that we’ve had since 2005, at the very least developers are looking for explicit reasoning. Adobe hasn’t completely killed the upload feature. While fixing existing code is very inconvenient, it will still be possible to do multi-file uploads. I’d certainly like Adobe to reconsider the severity of their decision to require user interaction for a system dialog to open, as I think it is overkill.
