Comment (by dd32):

 > I don't know. Can we grep them right now for an average filesize?

 Could probably look at the last 5,000 plugins with assets and see what
 they have.. It's not as easy as a grep but it's doable.

 I'm not really sure if it's worthwhile setting "sane" limits here, or if
 we're not just better off by putting an 'absurd' high limit (say 2MB?) on
 to block any stupid-sized images.
