Comment:

 indeed it is intentional.

 the upload_dir() function needs to be called to find out the uploads
 directory, the uploads url, etc. In the case of the media library, each
 thumbnail and link needs to call it.. if theres not some form of caching
 in place on it already, there should probably be some..
