It would be nice to be able to create custom language strings from the PivotX interface that were used instead of the default language files. These strings could be added/edited within a simple text-based UI (so long as the user knew which strings they were editing -- i.e., by referencing the original language files).

I was thinking about extra fields, and how it really makes more sense to have a general manager for them instead of plugins that basically just duplicate each other's functionality, and the only difference is in label and the limit on data type.

So basically you go into the manager, and you could add/change/delete fields on any item in the database.

So, lets say for Entry, Page, Category, Chapter; you can add fields to all of them.

Each field can be:
Data: Text, date, time, counter, id, code (no formatting)
Source (file path): image, file, template (<- hopefully we can over-ride template w/o the messy url hack)

Each data type can have a different input box w/ different validation, such as date can have JavaScript date selection.
Reason that image is a separate item is because we can operate on it by cropping, export it to picnik etc.

You can rename the field to something else, and you can also delete them.

This way it is really easy to make your own solution, and tweak it into a CMS by putting in product ID or something, any thing you can dream up, as long as you can parse in the template.

This way it is much more customizable.

Also, if it is ever implement it can be improved further:

- grouping certain fields together into "field set"
- assign default visible/collapsed state for fieldsets that's not often used to save screenspace
- being able to order the custom fields
- show "locked" custom field that's generated by a plugin
- ability to show the field below post, or in the "attributes" sidebar
- ability to enable / disable field (frontend & backend)
- ability to hide field (basically disable Zbackend only)

Only allow comments by registered users, with registration requiring admin approval. First, someone would have to register for an account and verify their e-mail address. Once this stage has been completed, the account will have to be activated by the site admin who can eyeball the details supplied. Admittedly this will put off a lot of people commenting, but will give site admin full control over who is allowed to comment (such as only allowing friends to comment).
