16220	Media Upload from custom tab using Flash Uploader is broken	jackcrosby		"If you create a custom tab in the Media Uploader, and try to upload using the Flash Upload method (as opposed to the Browser Upload method), any hooks you have in place to intercept the upload ({{{media_upload_$tab}}}) will not be triggered.

Reason: The upload function are not aware of the tab. Even though the Flash Uploader passes the $tab variable, the upload functions are not receiving it.

Cause: The $tab variable is set from the GET string ({{{$_GET['tab']}}}). This only works with the Browser Upload method. Flash passes variables with POST({{{$_POST['tab']}}}).

Fix: Inside '''/wp-admin/media-upload.php''' and  '''/wp-admin/includes/media.php''' replace all {{{$_GET['tab']}}} with {{{$_REQUEST['tab']}}}.
Also, the global $tab variable must be set.
Add it to '''/wp-admin/includes/media.php''' around line {{{#101}}} after the 'else{'
{{{global $tab;}}}
