Upload failed #36

This is a nice plugin, and we've been using it for a while. Thank you.

My users are in the habit of uploading like 10-20 files at once - i.e. just dragging a bunch of items from the desktop into the upload area on the page - and it seems that certain files in that set randomly fail. A functional workaround seems to be to simply upload files in smaller batches, like 3-4 at any one time.

If you then save the item, the attachments that uploaded OK all save fine, but of course then it's sort of a hassle to figure out which files failed to upload that you can re-attach them.

Have you seen this behavior before?

Here is what they see:

Ah really interesting. I have NOT seen this before. I wonder if Valum's uploader - https://github.com/valums/file-uploader - has the same problem. Maybe this has to do with the number of connections limit on the browser? Not sure myself. This requires more investigation...

I will give that a try and report back in a few days.
