Can size/space be limited for unregistered users?

I am setting up a site that will allow unregistered users to upload. I'm going to be using 5.13 and noticed in the usergroup section that there are these options:

Disk Space Limit (kB)
Upload File Size Limit (kB)
Daily Upload Limit (# of files)

for the Unregistered usergroup. Do these work and if so, does it track them by IP if they aren't registered?

I just wanted to know how well they work or if they work at all and have been forgotten to be taken out. Allowing unregistered users to upload images will be a big part of this site.

I would not use daily upload as it will limit things considerably since userid=0

filesize is a good one to use and diskspace would be cumulative for all unregistered users.

Thank you this answers a few questions I had. Do you think we will ever see some type of unregistered tracking for individual users in Photoposts future?

Well no application tracks unregistered users that I know of forums or otherwise so hard to say. Basically you could track by IP but this is not too good since alot of users are on dynamic IP's and some use AOL which means alot of users will be counted as one.
