Currently there is no way to make someone admin but to fudge with SQL directly. It's common practice to set up an admin account after installation, so it's reasonable to auto-admin the first created user. I expect that any admin can then give admin rights to other users via the web UI.

I'd like to have cwebbers input on this before working on this task though :).

Just working on issue 302 (Delete your own account), noticing that deleting a MediaEntry and all related Comments / Files / Tags / Collections has to be done manually e.g. in user_pages/views.py:media_confirm_delete().

It would make sense to provide a "delete()" function for MediaEntry that did all this work centrally. It would simplify the view functions and put the internal implementation details into the db models where they belong. It would also enable me to easily delete all user's media from the delete_user_account function without having to manually duplicate the thing.

So I've uploaded a file to my instance, but it's totally ignoring it.. it's not even present in the processing panel. But if I kill celeryd, remove the pid, and restart celeryd, it'll pick it up.

I'm uploading files two or three times a week, and I have to do the kill-remove-restart thing each time.
