I think that size requirement of > 20MB is beyond way too steep.
Why would you want to post a core file, for example? Aside from the obvious security problems, if every new user here since January 2008 posted one core file only, the server would likely run out of space. Neo knows exact numbers, my estimate could be inflated. But I'm thinking it would be like ~1TB to do that.
For a post to be useful, attachments would have to "stay" as long as anyone can view the post. Would you be personally willing to host nnTB of storage over five years for something like your suggestions? I cannot.

NAME
post - write or erase forms from associated subwindows
SYNOPSIS
#include <form.h>
int post_form(FORM *form);
int unpost_form(FORM *form);
DESCRIPTION
The function post_form displays a form to its associated subwindow. To trigger physical display of the subwindow, use refresh or some
equivalent curses routine (the implicit doupdate triggered by an curses input request will do).
The function unpost_form erases form from its associated subwindow.
RETURN VALUE
These routines return one of the following:
E_OK The routine succeeded.
E_BAD_ARGUMENT
Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
E_BAD_STATE
Routine was called from an initialization or termination function.
E_NOT_POSTED
The form has not been posted.
E_NOT_CONNECTED
No items are connected to the form.
E_NO_ROOM
Form is too large for its window.
E_POSTED
The form has already been posted.
E_SYSTEM_ERROR
System error occurred (see errno).
SEE ALSO
ncurses(3NCURSES), form(3FORM).
NOTES
The header file <form.h> automatically includes the header file <curses.h>.
PORTABILITY
These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
