In Webkit there is currently no way to determine if a file drop is a folder or not.

* Chrome returns a FileList with a length of 0.

* Firefox returns a FileList with a length of 1, but always reports a file size of 0 for folders, so you can provide a workaround.

* Webkit allows the folder to be dropped, and the file size varies depending on the folder contents.
