Thanks for your effort!

I think we should probably start with discussing what the most sensible way is
to fix this problem - with minimizing the risk that existing users run into
problems when they upgrade to the next curl version that includes this fix.

I also think escaping the comma in the file name part isn't a very comfortable
way for users since many will do this in scripts and then this escaping will
be a bit awkward.

As someone else suggested when this was brought up before (I don't remember
who), it could possibly be made with a new option (in the spirit of
--form-string) that accepts nothing but a file upload part and it would then
not accept commas at all as separators.

Yes, that was not a nice enough approach.

I'm not interested in a "quick fix". I want it done properly or left as it is
until someone else does it properly!
