If it was possible, it would raise certain security issues. You do realize,
that if I'd set file holding my saved passwords as the default file, and
auto-submit a form, I could get access to peoples passwords. I'd concider it
"phishing"... So you do realize why it has restrictions and why user action
is required? User must select the file himself to prevent misuse and
"phishing".
