You can handle large file uploads in Werkzeug if you want. The request object provides a function that is called to return a file descriptor that is used to accept your file. By default a temporary file in the temporary location is used if the file is large. With some custom code there you could directly upload to the target location.
The biggest problem with large uploads is that currently browsers do not provide a feedback in terms of how much was uploaded. Now of course you can keep track on that on the server and let the uploader poll via AJAX how many bytes were transmitted, but that's a really stupid idea. I would probably suggest accepting the uploads in Werkzeug or your webserver and using something like SWFUpload on the browser for user feedback instead of an AJAX solution.
