Context and Problem Statement

In Uro, we're unable to modify existing uploaded assets or otherwise understand them.

Describe the proposed option and how it helps to overcome the problem or limitation

Able to see:

• date originally uploaded
• date updated.
• store version info so old / incompatible assets can be identified

Disable incompatible assets based on date.

'Public' but 'unlisted'.

A concept of ownership separate from uploader to allow users to delegate usage rights of certain to certain specific users or (if we introduce it later) user groups.

Describe how your proposal will work, with code, pseudo-code, mock-ups, or diagrams

Please help design.

Positive Consequences

We are able to clean up older artifacts.

Stop clients from loading incompatible assets.

Negative Consequences

Need a per object blob database entry.

An asset will will fail to load and they will appear as big glowing exclamation mark

Option graveyard

Do nothing.

If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?

Not a few lines of script and needs to be on the backend.

Is there a reason why this should be core and done by us?

Uro is ran by us.
