Description
The DirectUpload plugin pics its own auto-generated filename for traces (see this upload). Instead it should use the filename for the GPX trace by default and allow the user to change it via a text field.

Replying to xeen:
What's the advantage over simply adding a description?
The user may use his own naming scheme for traces, and the expected behavior of web interfaces (or the things that use them) is to by default use the original filename, not make up a new one.
Anyway, FWIW until something like this is implemented I won't use this plugin, opting instead to use the web interface instead where the filenames I usually use for my traces won't be munged.
