Comment(by Alhadis):
Agreed - but I think this entire area of WordPress's source code needs
serious development. There's very little room for enhancement in the Media
Uploader's API - the best that I've done by way of customising the
uploader has been accomplished with JavaScript. It'd be good if there were
filters and actions for this: Your issue could, for example, be
circumvented by declaring a filter for the function that generates the
dropdown markup. Then all you'd do is replace the output with something
simpler - say, the image thumbnail and "Use as featured post" instead of
the whole shebang.
The way it is now, you'd need to capture and flush the output buffer to
implement that.
