Description
Uploader relies upon startup() to chek the size of the button it is transforming, but startup only fires if Uploader is within a container or created via markup

Users are required to call startup() on all of their widgets, so this wasn't a bug to begin with, but rather a user error.
Also, I haven't tested it but the code will now sometimes call startup() when the widget is hidden (inside a display:none), or not attached to the DOM at all (if the app creates the widget programatically and doesn't immediately attach it to the DOM). In this case it's likely to cause errors on IE with getting/setting the styles, possibly by trying to set styles to a negative number. Admittedly these cases are uncommon.

So is the correct fix no fix and I should remove it? I wasn't kidding when I expressed my dislike for the startup() concept. As many years as I've been doing Dojo I still don't get it.

Right, users are required to call startup() on all widgets created programatically, after the widgets have been added to the DOM. Note that widgets can be created w/out attachment to the DOM, ex: new dijit.form.Button()
