I ended up changing my javascript to be:

holder.ondrop = function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();

        var file = e.dataTransfer.files[0];
        var request = new XMLHttpRequest();

        request.open("POST",  upload_url, true); // open asynchronous post request
        request.setRequestHeader("X-Requested-With", "XMLHttpRequest");
        request.send(file);        
    };

and voila.
