You seem to have to give them an FTP login to your site to do this. Or am I missing something?

Or have the same user that runs php access to write to your webroot. This incurs other vulnerabilities though.

No you don't. It upgrades in place by pulling down files and updating itself. And you don't need to let it write to your whole webroot, just to the wordpress install directory.
