My sentiments exactly.

Allthough, server-side checking will always have to be done, it's immensely
irritating when:
1. A user waits several minutes to upload something and only then gets the
message the file was to big.
2. Laymen claim you upload doesn't work when they just don't wait untill
it's uploaded. (allthough I usually crudely fix this by placing a message
'uploading..' in the page by js on the onsubmit event.
