Feature request - video formats

Ok, I know I know... but really I'm pissed off that around the world nobody at this time have developed (also for commercial use, I really don't care) a "COMPONENT" that can manage images AND video in the same fascion.

Seen that your phoca gallery in a bunch of months after the final release of Joomla! 1.5 will be the most used image gallery in the world because, it's smart, it's compliant with J! api, works on servers that runs php-safe mode on, and so on. Why do not include also the possibility to manage video content's?

Once you have finished to implement the category nesting (I've seen on joomlacode.org that you are close to that :p), it will be it's natural "next step".

Just add that admin can also upload flv and some standard video format's like avi or wmv and run exterlan content just managing urls sources via db.
I want categorize and manage my media in a separate behaviour. I really don't understand why we as admin/users are forced to include them into an article.
It must be an option but not a common rule.

Please guys, think about that and keep up the good work!

Yes... the problem is, we cannot do new feature because there are still problem with Joomla ... it is not stable yet and e.g. SEF doesn't work with component, .... so we must solve the problems and then we can do new features...
