InputFile Changes to show Update

Question

I have a form with an inputFile component and a commandImageLink. However when I click the commandImageLink the inputFile (if a file is selected) changes to show "Update". I don't want any of the form to submit when I click on the commandImageLink. If I leave it in the update position, then the file upload fails with the value of the component being empty.
How can I make it so that I can click on the commandImageLink and the inputFile not change status (keep the browse... visible instead of changing to update as if the value was submitted already?).
My inputFile (bean scope = request):
<af:inputFile id="file" label="#{bundle.file}" required="true" value="#{singlefile.uploadedFile}" binding="#{singlefile.file}"/>
My commandImageLink (bean scope = request) is part of a declarative component:
<af:commandImageLink immediate="true" partialSubmit="true"
action="#{bean.showPicker}"
icon="#{bean.displayImage}"
binding="#{bean.browseSingle}"
shortDesc="#{bean.displayImageDesc}"
returnListener="#{bean.userPickCallback}"/>
Thank you,
Kris

Frank,
Doesn't appear to be working. Here's my method on the actionListener (immediate is set to true):
Am I missing something below?
The commandImageLink is part of a declarative component while the form with the inputFile uses this component. Does this change anything?
public void showPicker(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
// Create the dialog UIViewRoot
ViewHandler viewHandler = context.getApplication().getViewHandler();
UIViewRoot dialog = viewHandler.createView(context, "/dialogs/userGroupPickerSelect.jsp");
// SOME PARAMS AND PROPS ARE CREATED HERE
AdfFacesContext afContext = AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
afContext.launchDialog(dialog,
parameters, // parameters
(UIComponent)_browseSingle,
true, // show it in a dialog
properties); // properties for window
context.renderResponse();
