Nice! While you're at it, would it make sense to
include a field for the
media type (not the file type) as well? Like, "image", "audio",
"video",
coded as integer values.
If there was (eventually) a way for users to change this on upload
and/or from the description page, this could also solve (or assuage)
the irritating ambiguity of ".ogg" (Ogg being able to contain audio
*or* video, though ".ogg" normally represents Ogg Vorbis because that
"got there first").
Having that info to hand in an instant would also be great for having
proper "display" support for media other than images, too.
