I don't understand why the file size would need to be stored in the index file; this information is available by statting the file, surely? Similarly, the mime type can be determined through inspection, unless there turns out to be a reason to need to cache it for speed.

+For images, videos, etc. it would be nice to have some kind of meta data file to go along with it
+(eg. image.jpg.meta), to store information like creator, title, description, tags, length, width,
+height, compression, etc. which could be initially created by 'ikiwiki --generate-meta-stuff'.
+Then PageSpec should be
+teached to use these. Galleries could then be generated by means of
+\[[inline pages="type(image/*) and year(2007)" template="gallery"]]. It
+should of course be possible to edit this information via ikiwiki.cgi and with any
+text editor (Name: value). This should also allow for creations of default .html pages with
+the image/video/file/... and a discussion page. Probably named image.mdwn and image/discussion.
+ I think that would fit nicely with the ikiwiki concept. Cons? --enodev \ No newline at end of file
