Am wondering, could there be any way to have more control in the front end if i let my registered users add items using the "K2 add item" light box. for example:


The K2 logo: since its going to be in the front end, i would like to replace the K2 logo with mine or with mine besides the k2 logo.
The published field: i don't want my front end users to wonder about whether to publish or not, so i would like to do away with this field and may be in the back end keep it at published by default.
Its featured field: same as 2 above.. i would like to keep it at not featured by default.
the image field: This has a field where the user is allowed to browse the server for gallery images, can't this be security loophole? so if it is, i would like to kill this field too.
The dates: i would like to reserve the right to the start and end of item publishing dates and not the user.

Maybe if i don't get all or a few of the above done through this forum, may this act as a knock at the K2 developer(s) door.. and we shall see K2 v2.5,6 or 7.. with these much needed controls..

Thank you guys in advance.
