Add ability to transfer files uploaded outside the Media Library (on the front end or through other plugins)

Thanks for the great plugin. It works great for me on DreamHost shared hosting for normal uploads through the Dashboard Media Library.

Would it be possible to support transferring files that are uploaded by other means? For example, I'm using the WooCommerce Product Add-Ons Extension, which allows site visitors to upload files on the front end without logging in. It uses the wp_handle_upload() function for this. Files uploaded this way neither get transferred to S3 nor get their URLs redirected (or I'm doing something wrong). Is there some way I can hook into the S3 plugin to make this happen, and/or would it be possible to add this as a feature in future versions?

This is a great point and a nice addition for the future.

Definitely - I use lightroom to export directly to Wordpress - (LR/Blog extension) being able to support S3 uploads for other ways of adding media would be ideal.
