Stuff the [[plugins/attachment]] plugin is currently missing, that might be nice to add:

  • user() pagespecs, to limit what individual users can do. (See examples in [[fileupload]].
  • mimetype() pagespecs. (Using a mime type sniffer.)a
  • Virus scanning.
  • Make the attachments part of the Edit page hidden unless something is clicked on to display it. To avoid clutter.
  • Add a progress bar for attachment uploads (needs AJAX stuff..)
  • Maybe optimise the "Insert Links" button with javascript, so, if javascript is available, the link is inserted at the current cursor position in the page edit form, without actually reposting the form. (Falling back to the current reposting of the form if javascript is not available of course.)
  • Set $CGI::POST_MAX to some sane value (ie, larger than the largest configured maxsize() in the pagespec, or if none is configured, something reasonable. Just as a belt-and-suspenders DOS prevention.
  • Only allow attachments to be added to a given list of pages. Maybe a pagespec like parent(patches/*)
