@@ -73,34 +93,21 @@ also have lots more metadata.
     * `itunes:keywords`
 * Notable tags for entries:
     * `itunes:duration`
-        * use `Audio::TagLib` if present and applicable
-        * fall back to `ffprobe`
+        * [[!cpan Audio::TagLib]] might be fastest, if present and applicable

+        * Cache computed durations as pagestate
 
 ### Other ideas
 
-* Let the enclosure's MIME type be specified, in case someone ever
-  needs to disagree with `File::MimeInfo`.
-* Extend [[plugins/inline]] to configurably generate additional
-  subscription links (such as iTunes) alongside the RSS/Atom ones.
-* Verify that [[plugins/more]] plays well with fancy podcasts.
-* Allow enclosures that are outside the wiki.
+* Optionally specify the enclosure's:
+    * MIME type, in case `File::MimeInfo` guesses wrong.
+    * Duration, in case `ffprobe` guesses wrong.
+* Optionally specify enclosures outside the wiki:
+    * Some people don't want to store big unchanging files in the VCS.
+    * Other people like [podcasting found media](http://huffduffer.com/about).
+    * We'd have to download the file just to compute some metadata
+      about it, and then somehow not frequently re-download it.
+* Configurably generate additional subscription links (such as
+  iTunes) alongside the RSS/Atom ones in [[plugins/inline]].
 * Support Apple's "enhanced podcasts" (if they're still relevant).
