bsmedberg: currently, when breakpad submits a crash to socorro via an HTTP POST, the dump is in a field called "upload_file_minidump".  What will be the names of the additional dump fields?  When referring to those other dumps throughout the socorro processing and display, will we use the same field names?  I ask because the original dump field name is awkward and not very descriptive in the context of a multidump crash.  We can either change that name, document a name mapping or refer to them by index.  I'm assuming that I'll be making a modification to the storage subsystem api (for use in the middleware, processor, etc) to fetch a dump by uuid and name/index. what's your preference?

See bug 784145 comment 0.

The current options for additional minidumps are "browser" on all platforms and "flash1" and "flash2" on Windows.
