</div>Downloading files off webservers is the norm today, so why bother?<br>
<br>
If people look for alternatives it's usually for file upload (or<br>
sync-and-share) and WebDAV is often looked at, not FTP. But of course<br>
no WebDAV server or client supports SAML today either (though some<br>
would like to change that for constrained deployments).<br>
And with HTML5 and the File API fast uploads and aborting/resuming of<br>
uploads of even TB-sized files is possible today with modern web<br>
browsers, as showcased in e.g. <a href="http://filesender.org/" target="_blank">http://filesender.org/</a><br>
