TYPO3 Core

1. Allow missing files to be handled through the main index.php file¶

This way, we could use the redirects feature as well. We need to adapt the .htaccess file.

2. Make "ImageMagick" so flexible, that other solutions can be used (imagine library)¶

3. Add better support for functionality like imgproxy.¶

4. Move sys_file_storage out of the database and into configuration¶

This makes less DB connections and allows to use speaking identifiers. sys_file_storage is a configuration, nothing for editors or admins in a GUI in the future.

5. Separate FAL files from system images from extensions.¶

Basically we need to deprecate the "fallback storage" after 10 years now.

6. Bring "csm" (cropscalemask) and "preview" tasks together, and simplify the API¶

Evaluate if we still need both variants, and maybe drop "preview" and just rename them. The concept of the different previews wasn't really helpful.

7. Optimize the Online Media Handling¶

We should not need a physical file for online media files anymore. In addition, preview images cannot be handled by FAL right now.
