I think to start off with probably you could work on a way to store the files
on the filesystem. I think the 'VFS + $file_id' is fine. Probably we just need
something in the config file to specify that we are going to store the files
on the filesystem and not in the database and another option to say where the
directory is on the filesystem to store them. We could probably have a nice
function that will check the directory has writable permission to the current
web process. I think if you can work on this idea I will try to start porting
the exisiting code over to class.DBI.

Later, we could try to work out a way that mySQL can store the files in the
database.

BTW, what do you think about releasing 0.1.2 to fix the mod_rewrite thing? It
could bring in more users as some people can't use it if they aren't using
Apache. I have also fixed another bug where a null file is uploaded it gave a
SQL error.
