 Stuff the [[plugins/attachment]] plugin is currently missing, that might be
 nice to add:
 
-* Virus scanning.
 * 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/*)`
+* Allow files to be attached from the add comments form, as well as the edit page.
+* An option to not `rcs_add` new attachments, but just write them to the
+  srcdir. This would allow the admin to review them, and manually
+  add/delete them before they bloat history.

+> underlay, I think, rather than having them in the srcdir but not in

+> websites for photos and software releases, which are too big to want
+> them in the VCS permanently.) --[[smcv]]
