Description Leo Gallucci 2014-09-18 17:09:22 UTC 
As per discussion in https://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=7625#c15

I suggest adding an exception to [14.1 Interactable elements](https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webdriver/raw-file/tip/webdriver-spec.html#interactable-elements) for the case in which the element is an <input type=file> given the new html5 upload components that hide this input, enforcing that "The element must be displayed, as defined in section 10.1." just doesn't scale here.
