Comment (by antpb):

 @afercia provided some insight into this issue with some suggestions in
 the recent Media Meeting. This info highlights a few challenges in solving
 the issue:

 “Re: 47137 I’d recommend all the points from the audit. Two considerations
 though:
 - Ideally it should be a form because that helps in establishing semantic
 relationships. However, the sidebar is not rendered in all the views so
 including the select area, the attachments list _and_ the sidebar within
 one form might be a bit complicated
 - The list of attachments is perceived as a list of checkboxes so it makes
 sense to wrap it within a fieldset + legend. I’d tend to think it would
 need more work in the future because yes, it’s a group of checkboxes but
 it actually works like a mini-application with custom interaction. I’d say
 fieldset + legend would help, for now.”
