Another option is adding a mixin to the AjaxUpload. And perhaps attach it

I dont know if it is enough to wrap the upload component and have the
wrapper's handler push BEC, trigger custom event with callback result, pop
BEC after trigger returns and then return the callback result to the inner
handler?

You can probably contribute a ComponentEventRequestFilter to the
ComponentEventRequestHandler.

I always find the diagram at the bottom of this page useful
