I'm a good coder, and I have been rooting around in WP code for a couple
years now, authoring custom plugins, themes, and a couple hacks.  I can do
all the work, but wouldn't by any means refuse the chance to collaborate.
The /most/ important part of this feature is it's design.  Should we allow
the path to be configurable?  Should we allow it to be outside the webroot?
What security implications does that introduce?
