 When using the multi-file uploader, it doesn't show an appropriate error
 message when the connection is interrupted briefly. Instead, it jumps to
 "Crunching..." and gets stuck there, giving the impression that the upload
 was successful.

 To reproduce:

 - Begin an upload - I suggest a file at least a few MB, so you can see the
 effect more easily. Also, upload to a remote server, so the connection can
 be easily killed.
 - Upload a few %, then disconnect your computer from the network. I found
 a 15-20 second disconnect worked most consistently. I was testing with an
 ethernet connection, I assume WiFi will be the same.
 - Reconnect, and observe the upload bar. If it continues counting up, try
 disconnecting again, for a little longer.

 If you successfully reproduced the bug, it jumps to "Crunching...",
 without showing an error message.

 I've reproduced this behaviour in 3.4.2 as well as trunk.
