multipart/form-data filename="" not handled as file

[j@…]

Django does not parse file uploads with empty filename as file objects in multipart/form-data requests.
This happens currently if you try to upload a Blob in Firefox 4 (​https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=649150)
Firefox sends this:

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="fieldname"; filename=""
Content-Type: content/type
DATA

Reading the related RFCs there is no mention that filename="" is not allowed and the existence of the filename parameter should be enough to treat it as a file.
looking at django/http/multipartparser.py
165ff

                    file_name = disposition.get('filename')
                    if not file_name:
                        continue

this would need to set a default filename instead of bailing out
(i.e. if file_name == : file_name = 'data.bin)

590:

            if params.get('filename'):

this would need to check

if 'filename' in params:

setting file_name to None instead of default value also works. with this patch django is able to handle Blob FormData send by Firefox 4.0

Patch doesn't look quite right, based on the description - if there is no filename parameter it would be None, and the current code would skip it (continue) but the new could would not.

skip file creation if filename is not set
