Comment:

 Since location data is personal data, and it is possible to correlate
 authors with the attachments they upload in the REST API, we at least need
 to warn administrators to include a warning in their site's privacy policy
 about EXIF GPS data in media.

 Even better though, we could warn users in the Media Library uploader that
 the image they uploaded contains EXIF GPS and the risks therein.
