Dear DocDB Developers,

tonight (Japan time) I am trying to upload a document from Japan over a slow link, and I hit a funny behavior.

i originally forgot to specify a document type for my document. however, docdb didn't catch this until AFTER uploading 10 MB worth of files at some ludicrously slow speed. probably that check should be performed before
upload if at all possible.

Hope you find this a helpful suggestion.

Best,
Kevin McFarland

    The way to do this would be to write Javascript that duplicates (or close) the checks on documents that ProcessDocumentAdd does and trap the submit button. One still has to check in both places because JS may be disabled.
