I once wrote a function for the upload page where you upload a file by
giving its URL. There were some security concerns about malicious
servers, which I think I fixed, but then, as usual, nothing happened.

Should still be in there, for anyone interested. Lemme see... ah yes;
set $wgAllowCopyUploads=true in LocalSettings, and be done with it.
