 Priority:  normal        |   Milestone:  3.0                          
Component:  Post Types    |     Version:  3.0                          
 Severity:  normal        |    Keywords:  custom post types, thumbnails
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Expected: setting "thumbnail" for custom post type allows for setting of
 thumbnail:

 Observed: Unless "editor" is set, thumbnails won't work.

 More:

 In order to upload media or set thumbnails, the "editor" post type
 capability needs to be set. This isn't always desirable.

 We should show the buttons if "thumbnail" is set but "editor" is not.
 Perhaps in its own "Media Upload" meta box.
