From my extremely limited knowledge of MediaWiki, it seems like the
solution would be to create a usergroup 'bannedupload', and the only different permission they have is ['upload'] = false.
But I don't know who has permission to change user groups (ie add/remove people). Probably Bureaucrats by default since they make sysops and bots.
Nope, not Bureaucrats. Bureaucrats only have access to [[Special:Makesysop]], [[Special:Makebot]], and [[Special:Renameuser]]. Possibly Stewards at Meta could do it.
