Using the VFS (virtual file system) would be the best choice.

Lars will hopefully at the end of this week or start of next week
publish his changes to the Trouble Ticket System - where he has also used
the VFS to add documents to trouble tickets.
Then you could steal the code from there ;-)

Or take a look at the filemanager.
