UploadWirzard supports uploadbyurl, but it is only enabled for licenser and 
admins because upload by url is not 100% stable.
GWToolset has bugs too.

It is a real clone.
Per request (mailinglist/talkpage/mail) i can grant the gwtoolset right to 
trusted user without bureaucracy on the betacluster.
