input type=file accept=audio per HTML 3.2, 4, 5 and
http://www.w3.org/TR/device-upload has been around for more than a
decade without browser implementation, even though hundreds language
instructors and Tim Berners-Lee himself have asked for implementation
because it would enable many different kinds of apps.

My W3C invited-expert position on the issue is detailed at
http://talknicer.com/convAppsPosn.pdf

There is a Mozilla bug on this --
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46135 -- which has been
open for a whole decade, with 37 votes, and even had a patch back when
it was first opened.

Does anyone know how I can update my email address in Mozilla's
bugzilla?  I am no longer at bovik.org.
