Really large uploads may well require special handling and that special
handling is likely to be application specific.
(For example one might want to use a SAX parser or merely copy the data
to holding area and let a process
on a non-webserver machine process the file.) I am not concerned with
such edge cases.
For the purposes of my discussion we can assume that, say 5M, is a
reasonable maximum file size. The modules that I am comparing with do
slurp the entire file into memory. And by only providing a file handle
they force the caller to do it more than once.

That's the approach I am taking at the moment. Any thoughts?
This will make it impossible to use for large uploads because you'll
be slurping everything into memory.
