There are some "issues" right now, as it is done in XTF and not XBL. But you 
can try :)

It's hiding here:
http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/extensions/xforms/nsXFormsUploadElement.cpp#115
So it must be:
<label>
  <span/>
  <input type="file"/>
</label>

But we are currently changing upload:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=275453
So in the not to distant future :), it will be in XBL which should fix some of 
the layout issues and also make it easier to see what we actually create.
