OK, that makes sense. Like I said, though, the form for the iPhone
version could post in the same fashion as the regular version. What's
keeping you from using MediaPlugin in your app_photo() action?

Also, you might consider sending back the Image.id, along with the
name, in the return to your app. Instead of using echo, create a JSON
object and send that back. Then add the id to a hidden field so it's
propagated through the various submission stages.
