I have done an app with uploadify, so I think it should be similar
with swfupload:

The user has to sign to upload a file, so I can get the e-mail with
the user api.
Then I post the e-mail with the files (optional params in the flash
app, custom_settings ?)
Then I convert back this e-mail to a User (http://code.google.com/
appengine/docs/python/users/userclass.html#User)

It not perfect (security ?), but it's easy.

Regards.
