Comment (by chexee):

 saracannon, TECannon, and I discussed this briefly in last week's UI
 meeting.

 We liked "Attachment Post URL" / "Attachment File URL" for buttons, but
 this would make both buttons really long.  We can either sacrifice short
 buttons for descriptive purposes if no one can think of shorter language
 for this.

 Personally, I agree that its important to add the descriptive "Attachment"
 to Post URL and File URL, as a lot of new/casual users have trouble
 distinguishing Posts from Pages, none the less Attachments.

 We also talked about changing the 'URL' to 'Link', but thought there might
 be problems in translations because URL is a universal reference, whereas
 'Link' doesn't universally translate.  However, 'Link' (in English) is
 more user friendly and makes more sense for casual users.
