Not possible to send file metadata using dojox.form.Uploader

[Denis Rykov]

Not possible to send file's metadata (name, size, type) if use dojox.form.Uploader with uploadOnSelect option while uploading multiple files. Now only first file metadata sends to the server because _HTML5.js file contains the following code:

if(this.uploadOnSelect){
    this.connect(this, "onChange", function(data){
        this.upload(data[0]);
    });
}

Where data is list of objects which contains file's metadata.

If I had time I would completely refactor this code to use modern Dojo best practices, instead of a sort of mix of pre-AMD and AMD.

That said, it looks like all that is needed here is:

if(this.uploadOnSelect){
    this.connect(this, "onChange", function(data){
        this.upload(data);
    });
}

Does that seem correct?

I've gone through the various tests, and modified some of them to use the uploadOnSelect flag, and they seem to upload fine and post the relevant metadata.

Can you please provide a testcase that shows otherwise? ​https://github.com/dojo/dojox/pull/98 is a minor patch to clean-up the tests to try and solve this issue, but I'm not seeing the reported bug as I see all metadata sent across the wire.
