I'm sure you have a reason, but just curious as to why document provider uploads are not supported?

It's correct to say that some document providers are not supported. The list of supported document providers can be seen in the FileUtils class. This class should be improved to support more document providers.

Also, if a document provider represents a remote storage then the file should be first downloaded from this remote location before uploading to the Storj network.
