I'd like to extend on this one a little myself...

How about a way to configure whether the uploaded file is stored in
memory while it's being uploaded (as it is now), or in a temp disk
file (as is the case w/ PHP & most other normal languages...).  With
CF as it it, someone uploading a 20MB file to you not only blows your
disk quota, but it also blows your host's server RAM as that entire
20MB monster is sitting in memory.  It wouldn't surprise me if DoS
attacks are possible using that little "feature"...

Best regards,
Zac Bedell
