Yes i got it, but the "datetime"  imho is an ugly solution, we can use
hash, uuid, ond / or your own algorithm It is my point, in the link you
have the 3 options explained.

Noup, it is not true, you can use the "static" folder of any module, not
just from web, it means, if we install a new module, i can not "Without
ask" save in the server folder.

document module have a exchangeable folder with an configured by default,
if you think it is possible, We are working this week on it, we can share
efforts to do that.

Noup, I think i can not explain by myself well.

The document module give you the ability to "index" all uploaded files, the
file storage is extensible, and you can serve them directly http (exactly
as the static folder does) then, IMHO it is a matter of dedicate some time
to it.

Even we have a ir.attachment type called "url" that can be used to share it
trhought http.

It is a littel more complicated but by far more secure, due to in "Creation
TIme" you can manage the own ACL of OpenERP and in "Serve TIme" just serve
them with an standard http request, (the webclient is doing with this
technique.

I hope it is more clear.

For Sure, but I can change the default directory in my own deployment it is
not wired in code, it is our point.

Thanks you for the contribution dude.
