Currently, uploaded files are "lost" when a webform is submitted and form validation fails for any reason. The form is presented again, but the uploaded file has not been maintained. On large forms that do not REQUIRE file uploads, the user does not notice that the uploaded file is no longer attached, and re-submits the form, this time with no file.

Requested fix would recognize when a file has been uploaded and maintain it through the validation and re-submission process, allowing the user to replace the file that has already been uploaded if necessary.

Drupal currently support setting default values for file fields (I assume because of browsers not being able to support defaults either). This would be fixed at the Drupal level rather than webform if even possible.
