Just to make sure I'm not introducing a grammatical mistake... When there is no file selected on a file input, the message is "No file selected.", when there is the multiple attribute, it is "No files selected.". Is the plural for 'file' correct here?

No one I'm afraid.
Ah! Best to get UX involved early, but it's never too late. :)

What should we use to take a look? Is it all in Nightly now, or would another Try build be useful?

Any test pages to exercise it?
It is in Nightly. I guess you can simply use: data:text/html,<input type='file'> or the bugzilla attachment page to try it.
All dependant bugs are resolved, marking this meta bug as resolved fixed then.

We already have a note about the input implementation:

 DEVELOPER
HTML5 <input type="range"> form control implemented 

Is there something you'd like added or changed about this note to reflect this bug? If so please email me or ping in IRC.

This bug is about <input type='file'>, not <input type='range'>.
