If someone does not have a user account on your site, they
have no business uploading large files either.

If you’re on GNU/Linux: nss_pgsql exists. You can easily
provision those user accounts from some web application.
Then use an anoncvssh-style shell to only permit SFTP
and rsync (and possibly cvs, svn, git, etc.) and you’re
set.

Professional users will thank you for allowing rsync, and
DAUs can just use sftp:// URLs in Konqueror or krusader.
Or WinSCP… or zaSFTP on Windows Mobile.
