README.md.Expected Behavior
When a file is uploaded which cannot be handled by OpenWebUI OR Docling, it should give me status: failed in the files array.
Actual Behavior
Docling throws a correct error, OpenWebUI does not recognize is, tries to get a file which does not exist and keeps an empty file in the conversation and files list.
Steps to Reproduce
Setup OpenWebUI with Docling Document Backend
Upload a file which both does not handle (eg .csproj or .zip).
