I recently developed a feature for my company that allows for mass upload of users and a few other core models. I did use Django-rest-framework for the core file upload piece which may not be in the scope of this group, but it was fairly simple and if you wanted to do it for DSoC it'd be pretty straightforward. The only part from DRF that would need to be replicated would be de-serialization of the file.
