Video sending feature could also make use of the upcoming “large file support”

There is a button to record and send a video, you need to click “attach” and then “video”, it opens a camera.

As for large file size, another option is to split the file into multiple parts:

But, one solution could be that larger files are automatically split into multiple encrypted messages and then reassembled on the recipient’s system? (And of course, on any other devices the sender also has.) This would allow program files/videos etc etc to be shared seamlessly.

There is a support for fragmentation in MIME format, but it is not implemented: RFC 2046 - Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Part Two: Media Types The idea is simple, split the message into numbered fragments, collect them in a separate database table, and once the message can be reassembled, process it as a whole. This could be a separate feature request.
