My second reaction (after "awesome!") was that I'd love for this to support some kind of optional identifier+hmac functionality. That's not necessary for when you are fully in control of where people get the links of course, but as soon as someone starts sharing links to "your" content they can by definition modify it as well. It'd be cool if I could share a page that says "by chias" and that can prove it.
Then again, that would require itty-bitty to know that I exist, store my key somewhere, have some kind of auth system for me to log in and set my key... and now we're talking usernames, passwords, recovery email addresses, etc. etc., and I love the concept of services offered to people that explicitly don't do any of that. So third reaction is that it's great as-is :)
