Description
Using the FileUpload interface in the context of multipart/form-data requests and responses, it lacks the possibility to
access the http headers contained in the submitted form part.
Providing and returning these Headers is quite convenient to transport meta-data alongside the trasmitted binary-data.
Providing an interface method accessing these header would be useful.
Best regards and keep up your wonderful work.

Research direction
Start by locating the FileUpload and HttpData interfaces and the multipart/form-data handling they support. Review how submitted form-part metadata is currently represented, then determine the interface and implementation changes needed to expose HTTP headers. Done means multipart parts can provide their headers without losing existing binary-data behavior, with coverage for requests and responses.
