That JIRA describes quite another thing. Although it gets around the upload charge, it still requires an upload. It is still done on the servers. All of the rendering is done in the client, though, not the servers. Textures are downloaded from the server, placed in a buffer, and referenced by OpenGL. It should not be necessary to upload and download if the goal is just to have it local. It should be possible to load from a local texture directly into the buffer and allow for a button that says "Refresh" that reloads the buffer with the current content of the texture as it is being edited in Photoshop or other image editor. The goal is to make editing simpler and faster, not just cheaper.
