 At this moment there isn't a check for file size when uploading an image
 through the XML-RPC. The reason is that the method wp_upload_bits is used.
 This only checks it does is if the file size is to big for a network
 installation.

 The function check_upload_size() is something what you want except that it
 will use wp_die() if there is an error like this. The function is used as
 a filter: wp_handle_upload_prefilter. Which only get applied in the
 function wp_handle_upload.

 We should change some of the functions to allow to return an error instead
 of using wp_die(). When you look into check_upload_size() this should get
 a second parameter instead of checking if there is a $_POST variable set.
