 > In this case the capability name is correct. In this case it checks if
 the user can attach the image to a post. So users aren't allowed to upload
 images unless they have the capability 'upload_files'. When they want to
 attach the image to a post it needs 'edit_posts' or 'edit_others_posts' if
 it isn't their post

 Thanks for your reply, Mark.

 Your reason about post and attachment is understood, what I am going after
 is the name:  there is no such right as "'''edit_post'''", only
 "'''edit_posts'''".

 And this problem still exists in 3.8.1, line 37

 Thank you.
