Comment (by archon810):

 Looked around class-wp-xmlrpc-server.php, specifically in
 mw_newMediaObject(), but haven't spotted a particularly obvious way to
 accomplish this that would also stay in sync with the regular upload
 function - maintaining two versions of the file-changing code is cringe-
 worthy at best, and if two places are able to upload files without common
 bits, I'm getting nervous that there's a third one I'm not realizing at
 the moment.
