The idea is sonething like this:
- add an upload button next to resize for each disk
- use the iso / cd upload code for uploading (current browsers do not seem to have an upload limit)
- directly pipe to qemu-img so no need to aquire temp space for image

Do you think this will work?

Greets,
Stefan
