Youtube Video upload

I'm trying to make a video upload to youtube using the gdata api.
I also had a look at the hello-youtube example.
Does anyone knows if I can use youtube browser upload without requiring the user to loggin to youtube? I want the user to select a video from their computer, and upload it to my developer account (not the users account). Is this possible? In case it its, can someone help me with an example?

Many thanks!

EDIT

I found that it's possible to log from server side using any normal youtube account (not sharing my password, although my account still subjected of being suspended in case someone submits bad content). The code can be found on the "ClientLogin authentication for installed applications" of the python developers guide

This is a very bad idea because you are responsible for the content of your channel and the usage of your account.

It also means you will share your Google password with the entire world. Bad idea, bad idea, bad idea, ...
