 Replying to [comment:8 nacin]:
 > I would place money on the suggestion that the next major release
 focusing on feature development (whenever it is) will include a
 media/upload focus.

 Sure, but that's something that will appear in 2011.  Let's fix the
 problems we have, and in the future we can deprecate for the new-and-
 improved system.

 As a wise man once wrote,

   It’s called iteration. In an open source project, iteration happens very
 publicly. ... It’s called a patch for a reason. As we evolved the custom
 post type system, tons of code got rewritten, some of it dating three
 years and some of it three days. As we merged in WordPress MU, thousands
 of lines of code written by Donncha and contributors to MU were in some
 cases entirely rewritten or simply deprecated and removed. This is how a
 project evolves, grows, and strengthens.
