oh, i was calculating "at least 2" clicks for uploading the file for:
1 click to pop up a file-browser
0-n clicks to navigate to the correct folder
1 click to choose the file

this makes at least 2 clicks in the file-selection which you cannot get
around.

which makes the score 3 : 3.5
i guess this is pretty near to the ideal (but could of course be improved).


so i still do not see clearly what is wrong.
