Comment(by idealien):

 I agree that this is something that should be addressed.

 Of the options discussed, I would be most in favour of a boolean attribute
 (such as 'include_thumbnail'). Regarding precedence, since include /
 exclude references specific object IDs I would think it to take precedence
 over this new boolean.

 Adding this selection into the gallery media screen - include featured
 image (yes / no) - might open up more questions that are beyond scope of
 3.1. Should there be an 'exclude from gallery' checkbox beside each
 attached image in the gallery? Why is it mandatory that because an image
 is attached to a post that it be a part of the gallery? etc.
