event('response-body') returns "No files uploaded!" on xforms-submit-error on the post-crossref submission. This is the same error response when failing to attach a file via curl on the command line. However, I am convinced that the username and password are being sent correctly in the crossref-form-data instance, as if I omit these values, I get a different response-body.
