gollark: Because instead of "pages have attached files which can be linked the pages", you could just have "pages contain files as a separate type of content, embedded appropriately".
gollark: Minoteaur 7.1 had file management capabilities, but while working on this now I realized I suddenly realized that this could probably be combined with the content model rework somehow, accursedly.
gollark: But I also really don't like writing much code, and want to generalize and combine features as much as possible. Which causes more problems.
gollark: The main causes of this are:- I wanted it to be interactable with externally via an API of some kind, and operating on text strings for that is kind of æ æa æ ææææ æææ.- I wanted some kind of structured data handling mechanism, partly for APIous purposes - see DokuWiki's `struct` plugin, and a cool feature a random journaling website has where you can use `CAPSTHING: bees` in a page and get tables out- I also thought that the design of all previous Minoteaurs, which made pages entirely text strings, hampered rich editing capabilities (such as "to-do lists" where you could easily check/uncheck things, and arbitrarily-nested-bullet-point "outliner" stuff)
gollark: However, design of this in any detail requires making decisions, which immediately induces apionic "bee" incursions.
