Playframework 2.2 update: where to store uploads

Starting Play 2.2 the getFile root directory is target/universal/stage/ instead of the projects root folder. In our project we uploaded files to the <root>/uploads folder. But after updating to Play 2.2 these uploads are inaccessible.

Is it desired that uploads are stored in target/universal/stage? I believe not, since those folders are created on build and we can therefore don't be sure these folders remain in place.

Play specifically does not support this.

See this recent discussion from the mailing list: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/play-framework/iHwp1FIjZbw

As noted by the Play maintainers in that discussion, a frontend server like nginx running in front of Play is the recommended approach.
