Pager: Essentially a collection of links, does not seem to require role=application

Uploader: While the uploader use a table, the keyboard interaction for the file rows is not expected to follow standard table navigation. Rather the user selects whole rows to operate on, and can scroll through them using the mouse or keyboard. Rather than removing the role=application completely, i think it should be scoped more tightly to the file queue rows as these are the only parts that have the application style keyboard navigation.
