Emtpy filename on form-data post

Hello,

I'm trying to script the following:

-----------------------------23010741916212
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="bindingsFile"; filename=""
Content-Type: application/octet-stream

This does not work:

$ curl -F 'bindingsFile=@;type=application/octet-stream' 127.0.0.1
curl: (26) failed creating formpost data

The closest I've come to matching the above was:

$ curl -F 'bindingsFile=@/dev/null;type=application/octet-stream' 127.0.0.1

which produced:

-----------------------------23010741916212
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="bindingsFile"; filename="null"
Content-Type: application/octet-stream

Anyone know how to produce a blank filename field ? Any plans for adding this
feature ?

Thanks,
Kristis
