 Agree with Jane. Perhaps some of the confusion comes from the fact that we
 save the "caption" entered in the image properties popup into the
 attachment post's excerpt (and the image description is saved in
 post_content). Then the excerpt is shown in the default gallery and on
 individual image (attachment) pages, and is inserted together with the
 image in new posts/pages.

 Perhaps we should rename the caption field in the image properties popup
 to "Default Caption" (as it is used as default in new posts).
