This did not get done before code freeze for 2.5.0. If it is required for 2.5.0 or 2.5.x, please let me know ASAP.

Also, we should work out a better spec for this. One possibility is that the type registration defines an upload action and gets to specify some part of the interaction, which will be handled by a helper specified by the type registration, but the actual upload will be handled by the Resources tool. Another possibility is that the type registration gets to define some set of attributes that will be supplied by the helper. For example, maybe the regular Resources tool interface for uploading files is used but the new resources are treated in some special way, and the webapp that defines the resource type gets to set properties on them. In the normal course of events, it may also get to do some pre- and post-upload activity. So we need a more complete spec and/or a use case.
