Describe the feature you'd like

Regarding: https://www.bookstackapp.com/docs/admin/upload-config/#changing-upload-limits

I've been fighting with the ability to upload large files for years. I set all the options I could think of to increase max file uploads size. I kept getting: 422 (Unprocessable Content) after uploading anything larger than 768MB

It turns out: tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,relatime,size=786432k)

This was the problem
