upload a file in multiple parts (You can upload these object parts/segments/chunks independently and in any order):

• allow huge file uploads without the need to configure proxies etc. (this should prepare the repository for situations where the operator does not want to limit the max size of a submission, cannot set max body size on a proxy...)
• if using s3 individual parts might go directly (via presigned url) into s3
• optionally with UI showing progress

I guess this requires splitting the fileupload process into multiple steps - some sort of setup (e.g. how many parts), the actual transfer of data (individual parts).

The question here is the checksum
