Is there a way to get the filename only on iOS using CameraRoll?

Question

This post is a sidetrack from this post: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/848761?tstart=0

The method used in that post works perfect on both Android and iOS for selecting and uploading files.... BUT is there a way to get the filename of the file from the mediaPromise cross-plattform?

If you let the user select an image it's not very nice to have the image be called "temp.jpg" after uploading - you want the user to know which image he/her have uploaded

Any ideas? The "mediaPromise.file.relativePath()" works on Android but not on iOS. Not "mediaPromise["file"].url/relativePath/nativePath" either.

Thank you

... it would also be nice to allow the user to actually view the image before storing on disk and uploading. So you don't have to store it everytime you want to display it in your APP. But as I've learned this isn't available on iOS at all?

If you want the user to select 10-25 images and having to save them on disk everytime just to let him/her view it in the app the app repository would get quite large (25*2mb=50mb).
