Multi-File Uploader component naming

[Daphne Ogle]

I'm all for brevity.  I was just changing the wording in the DP and  
it's a lot to type :).

Gary also brings up a good point that was my gut feel.  You can upload  
a single file also.  I expect that to be 50% of it's use.   Using  
"multi" describes functionality people don't expect from a browse  
upload function but the tradeoff is that it may set up the expectation  
that single file upload is not part of it.

I think I'm changing my mind and leaning toward Uploader.

Thoughts?
