That is quite ugly -- I had a similar feeling when I learned that
Net::SMTP expected me to provide raw email messages as one big giant
string.  But it's not so bad once you throw a method around it... I
guess.

You say that like it's a bad thing...

I also tried looking into the ruby amazon s3 client (aws-s3) source
code to see how they do uploads, but I got lost.

Not sure if http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/parkplace/ includes any
client code -- if so, that could be interesting.

I could be missing something -- my Ruby skills are admittedly weak.
