No. For uploads stored on filesystem it always returned (filename, fullfilename). For other types of uploads it returned (filename, stream).
We tried to change this and return always consistently (filename, stream). There was only one trunk version that did that. It was reverted because of caching concerns. The current trunk version is another experiment. These are tests. This is not the standard behavior. I am glad it now works as you expect but it not decided it is going to stay this way until we clear all issues.
