Well I'd like to get the flickr thing working first before
generalizing. But I do feel that it would be really nice to generalize
the transfer from another site.

Generalizing adds a lot of complexity in general, and the system your
describing sounds really complex (with signing keys and things). I'm
not sure if the benefit of allowing people to hook into upload wizard
without going through gerrit warrants such complexity, and if people
really wanted to transfer from other sites without uploading something
to gerrit, would they just use userscripts and tool lab tools as an
easier alternative.
