Is there a Mustache template key for the request URL path available?

I'm looking to integrate GoatCounter's tracking pixel: https://www.goatcounter.com/help/pixel Per their docs, this looks like: <img src="https://MYCODE.goatcounter.com/count?p=/url-goes-here"> I'd like to be able to use Blot's existing templating logic to do something like: <img src="https://MYCODE.goatcounter.com/count?p=/{{req.url.path}}">

How would one go about implementing tufte-css?

I really like the look of tufte-css, available at github, but feel a bit intimidated about implementing it using Blot and the available templates. Does anyone have suggestions? (A dream would be if it became an available template out of the box…)

Support for video embed previews in feed?

I've been playing around with the excellent Reference template and having a lot of fun customizing it. While the blog feed is great for tagged images, I'm having a little bit of trouble getting video in the mix. I'm wondering if there's any way to get video embed thumbnails to display in the blog feed similar to image files? Right now they are treated as text posts since they are .md files with a Vimeo URL in them and some info in the file name (date, tags, etc). Ideally a mini version of the embedded player would show in the feed, similar to other templates. I'd be happy with a static thumbnail though, the .post.no-thumbnail style is a little jarring in a sea of image thumbnails. Thx! ♥Jonathan

Support for SSO & MFA?

Will you consider adding support for Single sign-on (SSO) and Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)?

Notifications for question answers?

I'm a big fan of this Questions section of Blot since it lets me try to find solutions to problems on my own before reaching out to the contact email or asking a new question. However, it's hard to keep track of questions and when they are answered. Right now, I make a task to follow up on the question's URL and then periodically try to run back down the list to see if anything's changed. Would you consider adding a 'notify me' feature that sends an email or something when a particular question gets a new answer? Ideally, I could "subscribe" to any question, even if I hadn't asked it, since there are topics others have brought up that I'm eager to learn more about. I guess I'm thinking of something like Discourse, which I've seen other places use, but maybe you don't want to go down that route.

URL-ifying Titles

I noticed that Blot replaces apostrophes with dashes when converting a title to a URL-ready slug, but only when they’re singular. For example, Apple’s Striking Short Film Ahead of International Day of People With Disabilities → https://heydingus.net/blog/2022/12/apple-s-striking-short-film-ahead-of-international-day-of-people-with-disabilities vs ‘All Consuming’ Podcast is Back → https://heydingus.net/blog/2022/12/all-consuming-podcast-is-back Would you consider making it so singular apostrophes are also ignored, as it would make the URLs more readable?

Payments history and invoices?

Where can i download the invoices or the history of payments / receipts? Thank you very much

Would it be possible to use image title instead of alt text for the caption?

It appears you can set the title of an image like so![A screenshot of something](./_screenshot.png "this is a title"). I'm wondering if there could be an option to allow using the title instead of alt text for the image caption. Could be a nice convenience over putting in HTML for a caption. Or is there already a good way to set a separate caption that I'm missing?
