[New Primitive] FileUpload

[colmtuite]

Feature request

Overview

The native <input type="file"> is not customisable. To get around this, I often see people doing:

<label>
  <button>
  <input type="file" style="hide this element visually">
</label>

However, this approach doesn't render the filename, which is bad for a11y. Rendering the filename requires JS

Who does this impact? Who is this for?

Anyone who wants custom UI and uses forms, which is quite a lot of people.

Additional context

We could also provide a part to render the filesize (which I think is available through the browser API).

A good example of use cases can be found on Uber's base web component lib

I will probably use React Aria because this project does not support file input.

[rsxdalv]

Now that this issue has been converted into a discussion, my trust has fallen, I'm assuming this will not be implemented.
