Thoughts on WildFlower updates..

This is more or less a list of things I consider "broken" or "needs better implementation" about wildflower.. basically a list of things I'll attempt to address in my branch of wildflower unless someone else beats me to it. Just a preliminary brain dump, don't expect any pearls of wisdom here.

Wildflower Post/Page Publisher

• In TinyMCE Editor, insert image tool has awkward selection method. Currently you have to click the image button, then click the thumbnail of the image you want to select, then click the "insert selected image" button. If you click the link text for the file name it brings you to the Edit action for that file -- should just auto-insert image in to TinyMCE.
• In TinyMCE Editor, insert image tool does not allow you to upload an image from the publisher. Requires that you use the Assets manager. Should display uploader utility in side-bar.

Wildflower "Assets" Manager

• Should support many file types, not just images.
• Files should be displayed with appropriate file-type icons
• Is a thumbnail for images really necessary?
• Needs multi-upload capability. Current implementation is very slick and intuitive for uploading 1 or 2 images, but what if you need to upload 20? It starts to become a pain in the ass at that point. It would be cool to use something like the YUI Uploader
  

Wildflower Users

• No distinction between Administrative users and a regular site user
• No ACL

Wildflower MU Specific

• No "Root Administrator" role for all sites
• Some models are not entirely converted yet (Sitemaps for example..)
