Description
I belive that file upload support would be a nice feature of Groovlets.
General idea:
Groovlets Servlet checks if type of HTTP request is multipart (i.e. confirms RFC 1867 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1867.txt) . If so, it parses its content, stores files on disk and sets them as implicit objects in ServlerBinding. What is more, it decodes parameter values form multipart content and stores them in 'params' implicit object. User who develop Groovlet scripts can handle uploaded files very easy (I belive this is a general idea behind Groovy, in general).
Implementation:
It is quite easy to implement this mechanism using Commons FileUpload (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/) which is mature and reliable library for processing RFC 1867 multipart HTTP requests.
What do you think about this?

I've just implemented this feature. Have a look and lets discuss things 
You should consider it as preliminary version. This implementation doesn't include any configuration, but if you accept general idea I could add some things to it.

In general, a very good idea. Not good, groovy!
