What Nigel said is that in last version of Gears (not released yet, but you can get it from the svn) there is a basic way to interact with Blobs.
But I think this is still not enough for what you want and even if you can get along with this, it will work only on closed enviroments (where you are able to install a self compiled version of gears to all users) and will never work on a public website.
