I've reviewed the fix and Mike has tested it. We've committed patch d.

Here's a working patch, which enables the HTML 5 version of Uploader to handle files comparably to the Flash version.

Here's a screenshot of how the error appears when a user uploads the same file twice with the Flash version of the Uploader.

Here's a revised patch, which actually works.

I believe this inconsistency is due to a lack of error handling in the Uploader's HTML 5 strategy. Here's a patch with a rough sketch for a simple fix.
To reproduce:
1. Visit http://build.fluidproject.org:8080/sakai-imagegallery2-web/site/AddImages/
2. Upload a set of images
3. Upload the same set of images again
4. In the Flash-based uploader, the user receives a "File upload error", but in the HTML5-based uploader, the user successfully uploads the existing files.
