GXT File API support

[rcbeuker]

New Browsers support the HTML5 File API;

Here are some cool examples (with drag/drop etc.);

Except from some old GWT project;

https://code.google.com/p/lib-gwt-file/

There's no real GWT support for this API. Is GXT implementing this functionality in the near future?

You might want to look into GWT Elemental:

This will also work with GXT once released
