To clarify, there are two solutions:
1. Expose the text correctly via IAccessibleText; or
2. Stop exposing IAccessibleText altogether on that object (i.e. QueryInterface 
shouldn't return it). To work with current NVDA, the text would have to be 
exposed as the value rather than the name if the role is label. We can debate 
this name/value point, but it's not worth discussing if option 1 is suitable.

Title:
  <input type=file> does not accept textual input

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  Firefox 3 (3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1) immediately opens a "file upload" 
dialog when I click on the file name field. Ff should only open this dialog if 
click on [Browse...]. Even after I close the dialog window I can neither input 
a file name directly into the field nor can I remove the file from the input 
field.
  It should be as easy editable as in firefox 2.

  I use Hardy amd64.
