Additional info:

Comment 1 David Mason 2014-08-04 01:11:55 UTC
This problem will disappear when the seam file upload elements are replaced by the new multi-file upload widget. Once the new widget has proved stable in production, we can use it to replace all upload dialogs for which this problem occurs.
