You'd use multipart/form-data, but ONLY the type="file" INPUTs would
be in the actual POST data.

So your MD5 would be the MD5 of the uploaded file.

The rest of your inputs would be in GET data:

<form action="whatever.php?input1=foo&amp;input2=bar" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
  <input type="file" name="whatever" />
</form>

You could even use JS to take any other FORM INPUTs and change them to
GET parameters and submit a somewhat hacked POST with everything but
the file in GET parameters.

It won't be pretty...

But it might work and be faster than waiting for the Feature Request...
