multiple uploads on the Frontend

[dromstad]

I apologize if this has been answered, I did search but,

Is there a way to allow multiple files to be uploaded or selected to upload on the front end?
Pretty much like NeoUpload but on the front end?
Currently I am using the Uploads module for customers to upload files, but compressing all into a zip turns customers off as they would like to select multiple ones. And uploading one at a time is very cumbersome.
Could neoupload be used on the front end?
Could Uploads be modified to allow multiple file selection and upload?
Could this be a Jquery option?
are there any other options?

Thank you!
