I've been looking into this as well.  It looks like I'm going to need
to bite the SWFupload bullet myself.  I can't find any other decent
alternative, especially if you want to allow the user to select more
than one file.

There are a few nice samples out there where people have done most of
the heavy work:
The first shows how to direct upload to S3, the other how to use
paperclip on heroku.
