Sigh. I really hope that ngx_upload could be implemented as a rewrite
or access phase handler rather than a content handler, then we can
trivially combine with content_by_lua in the same location, for
example, and no longer need to do any kind of internal redirections
that clear everything including nginx variables and module contexts.

Maybe Valery can work on an alternative UI for his ngx_upload module? ;)
