This reminds me of a feature in rewrite.php which matches numeric
stubs on attachments by adding a rewrite rule for the explicit form:
/page-slug/attachment/numeric-slug/
e.g.
/about/attachment/53/

This also required some logic in the functions that create attachment
permalinks, basically to detect an all-numeric slug and add
"/attachment" in the path.

You probably don't want to add to the path, so let's assume you'd
rather get rid of the rules that match the paged pages. Filter
page_rewrite_rules.

Cheers,
