Comment (by jhodgdon):

 There are also a couple of bugs that go beyond text changes, too.

 1) If you upload a different type of a file, such as a Word doc, and click
 "Send to editor", it is still put into an IMG tag if you insert it from
 the details section with the "send to editor" button. Probably a Word doc
 should be put in as a plain hyperlink to the file name. I'm not sure what
 the right tag would be for other types of media, such as videos, but I
 doubt that an IMG tag is correct.

 2) What about being able to browse images from other posts -- losing this
 functionality in 2.5 seems like a bad idea.
