SUMMARY
After forcing Firefox to use xdg-portals for it's file picker, if you select
more than 1071 files using an HTML input[type=files] and hit "Open", you will
receive a "file cannot be found" error, with a truncated file name. Using
Firefox's built-in GTK file picker I was able to submit more than 4400 files
successfully.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable xdg-portals in Firefox by setting
`widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker` to 1
2. Navigate to any site that opens a file picker
3. Select more than 1071 files
4. Try to submit those files by clicking "Open"
OBSERVED RESULT
Error stating "the file cannot be found" with a broken file path.
EXPECTED RESULT
All selected files to be added to the HTML form for further processing.
