[Windmill-dev] https; file uploads; extjs and click support

Hi.  I talked with Mikael on IRC yesterday: thank you again!

I mentioned to him that we needed https for our app, and he said that  
it was hard, but in progress.  That's great to hear.

In exploring Windmill some more today I encountered a couple of other  
problems.

The first is that I don't see a work-around for file uploads.  For  
what it's worth, Sahi, which appears to have a similar basic approach  
to Windmill's, does this for the problem: http://sahi.sourceforge.net/apis.html#setFile 
  .

Any chance you all might have a solution for file uploads coming soon?

The second is that Windmill is missing quite a few important clicks in  
extjs.  For instance, try recording on this page: ``windmill firefox http://extjs.com/deploy/dev/examples/grid/edit-grid.html 
`` .  If you click the checkboxes on the right, nothing happens in the  
recorder; and if you use the calendar widgets, it won't see the click  
on a number.  The checkboxes are not real checkboxes, but I have the  
"Absolute click sensitivity when recording:" option turned on.  I  
don't know about selenium or sahi on this page.

Is this a bug that you all are willing to address?

Thanks

Gary
