That's what I was thinking. It'd still need mod_midgard support to make the DB connection available, so there's work to be done thinking up an architecture/interface for this. > If this would be possible, I would like to see it incorporated into > midgard as directly as possible, because I see a lot of performacne > Issues coming to us here, along with some othor minor PHP things.

I don't have any concrete plans about file storage other than that I want to have it. Trade-offs will have to be made about flexibility vs performance (filetemplates were flexible but very slow), readeability (FTs were not really easy to read/code), and mounting issues (at what point in your URL tree does the app hook in, how does it tie in to the selected host/style), and authentication forceing (midgard pages can demand authentication, not so easy for phase 9 work). I would personally be OK with the app having to be bundled of sorts to pre-determine what elements were appliccable (this would be akin to MMP caching out the paes) in order to win some performance; one thing we'll want to avoid is having a lot of disk reads/seeks.
