This is a big one. Can I rewrite the plugin to handle slides with multiple images? See this tweet for inspiration and this test for a hardcoded example.

Will need a rethink of how images are handled, as posts can only have one featured image.

Alternatively, could leave carousel posts as they are, but have a new feature to build carousel sets. Create a carousel ID, give it it's own settings page, then assemble carousel posts (images) into slides with various layout options..

Another idea - could be simpler, just rely on all images already being uploaded to the media library. Then write a custom admin UI where all images are shown in date order along the bottom and can be dragged and dropped into a layout schema. Could be really nice!
