The real use-case for which I implemented is a bit particular (described
below), but I'll resend with a more general explanation.

For the curious: I have a wiki with ~2Gb of mediafiles, and I want to
secure it without particular access to the server. I import the wiki on
a desktop machine with a large disk, and re-export it to another
webserver with a small disk quota. Importing mediafiles is good because
it gives me a backup, but exporting them is not an option as my quota on
the webserver is too small.
