There is an action called 'upload_files_upload', which is called from
upload.php for file upload management. You should be able to add to
that, using add_action, with a high priority so your function is
called first. See upload-functions.php in wp-admin for information on
what it is doing now... if you have been writing plugins, this is
probably enough to get you started?
Hope this helps --
