Filed on behalf of rakeshw 

While you folks are working on the HttpRequest integration, is it possible
to make the File Blob request send over to server as Multi-Part? Probably
this should be taken care by the Gears team but if it is something that can
be taken by the gwt-google-api team that will be great. Frankly I am not
sure how this can be done otherwise I would have contributed.

When a file is selected by the browser, it injects periodic markers called
as multipart boundary. These markers are used by utilities like the apache
file upload on the server to reconstruct the file(probably in pieces, not
exactly sure how it works). Multipart boundary is totally missing in the
Blob that we upload.

The Gears API is now deprecated.
