The receiver of the new FileUpload widget does not pass the original filename and - more important - its extension to the servlet container.
At least under OS-X with Jetty or Tomcat, the uploaded files get stored with a generic name and extension ".tmp".
Without the information about the filetype, the usage of uploaded files gets a bit complicated.

Example (OS-X, Jetty or Tomcat ): 
 FileDialog fileDialog = new FileDialog( shell, SWT.TITLE | SWT.MULTI );
  fileDialog.setText( "Upload Files" );?
  fileDialog.setAutoUpload( true ); // This API will change, see below!
  fileDialog.open();
  String[] fileNames = fileDialog.getFileNames();

=> any entry in fileNames ends with ".tmp" independent of the filetype/extension of the uploaded file.
