    You can integrate rsync or such an algorithm into it to walk the tree, parse the list and process it...
    Do you think this is one of the best points? Mark it as a good point

    Additionally, it would be very useful to be able to utilize the ssh process to be able to create connections directly between two shares, again vs using the intermediary workstation from which presently working. Thus if you transfer files from server1 to server2 and they have a fatter pipe between themselves as the workstations network connection will nearly always be the limiting speed bottleneck, plus just add to the process, you could ssh with the authentication info from server1 to server2 and then transfer the file(s) directly. Again, this could yield tremendous speed increases and a much happier userbase. Of course transfer data would need to be captured and translated for Mac OS X to understand, but that can be done without too much work perhaps through hooks that already exist.

    cp process + advantages of spawning ssh and exec'ing processes
    When you copy data from a remote share through sftp to the same share, but into another folder/directory, PLEASE set it such that it will do the copy directly on the server versus using the remote connection from which one is working as the conduit. If sftp cannot directly do this, it can be accomplished by spawning a new ssh process using the sftp authentication info and then simply issuing a cp command. This would save tremendous headaches for me while moving things from staging folders to production and so forth as we deal with some large images, and so forth. It is simply a matter of efficiency and could help in other areas as well. For example, `du` may be able to be issued to more quickly gather disk usage information.

    Excluding Categories from Front Page in WordPress
    How can you remove selected Categories from your front page feed on WordPress? Is there a function already available or will custom coding be required such that a conditional excludes the one not wanted?

    Cannot change user details?
    Just tried to add a new user, entered their last name and it did not appear. I went to hunt down a way to change their last name and it appears that there's no way to yet do this... Is this a work in progress item?
