Description

I'm trying to use the File plugin in combination with FineUploader. FineUploader uses the File API and tests if a passed in object is a file using the following call:

Object.prototype.toString.call(file) === "[object File]"

But the File retrieved from a FileEntry using entry.file(function(file)

{ ... }

); is not seen as a file since the toString.call returns [object Object].
