 Replying to [comment:3 pampfelimetten]:
 > @scribu: I basically looked at wp_insert_post, where it uses the same
 order:
 > {{{
 >       $data = compact( array(...);
 >       $data = apply_filters('wp_insert_post_data', $data, $postarr);
 >       $data = stripslashes_deep( $data );
 > }}}

 > @westi: On the one hand, there's a similar filter in wp_insert_post, but
 not in wp_insert_attachment. That's odd, I can't see a reason for that.
 > Particularly, I want to check the post_name field of the attachment
 before it get's entered in the db. The reason is, I want to avoid numeric-
 only post_names, as it interferes with my non-standard permalinks
 (%post_id% only). I've been looking into all the functions, and there are
 no hooks at all to do that, so I figured it would be easiest to just copy
 the behaviour of wp_insert_post and modifiy the data there before it gets
 handed to the sanitize functions.

 Ok.

 So a filter here would work for you.

 But maybe a more generic filter on all post_names would be better and
 easier for you to use?
