 Ok, so I have been able to make the Media show on the nav menu page by
 doing

 {{{
 add_action( 'init', 'add_attachments_to_nav_menu' );
 function add_attachments_to_nav_menu() {
         $post_type_object = get_post_type_object( "attachment" );
         $post_type_object->show_in_nav_menus = true;
 }
 }}}

 But how do I update the  {{{ _wp_nav_menu_meta_box_object() }}} for
 attachments to be {{{ post_status->"inherit" }}} so that media files show
 up?
