I just took a stab at this, in a very quick and dirty fashion. Stick that in
a controller and fire it onRequestStart and you're good to go.
<cffunction name="handleUploads">
<cfargument name="event" />

<cfset var tempDir = getTempDirectory() />
<cfset var regex = "^" & replace(tempDir,"\", "\\", "all") />
<cfset var i = "" />
<cfset var uploads = structnew() />
<cfset var result = "" />
<cfset var tempFile = "" />
 <!--- i think its probably ok to access FORM directly here... --->
<cfloop collection="#form#" item="i">
<cfif REFindNoCase(regex, form[i])>
<cftry>
<cfset tempFile = createuuid() />
<cffile action="upload" filefield="#i#" destination="#tempDir#/#tempFile#"
result="result" />
<cfset uploads[i] = result />
 <cfcatch>
<!--- you might wanna log this error or take some action here --->
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
 <cfset event.setValue("uploads", uploads) />
</cffunction>
