[Ur] File I/O

When storing data files in the database, we had to store additional metadata such as headers. Then when the user downloaded the files, we had to resupply the metadata so the browser could properly handle the download. I think this would probably still apply if the files were stored in the database.

I'm not sure if I'd consider this a feature... It's relatively trivial to restrict the size of uploads as needed.
