 Replying to [comment:7 nacin]:

 separately (and thus unattached) are simply published as-is. That's the
 relevance.

 Still confused here.  Err...  You are drawing an analogy between what is
 supposed to be publicly viewable vs. publicly inaccessible.  While I don't
 disagree with that information, it is inconsistent with the bug I'm
 reporting.  I think we need a matrix to explain this:

 {{{
 +------+----------+-----+----------+
 |Viewer|Unattached|Draft|Auto-Draft|
 +------+----------+-----+----------+
 |Admin |   OK     | OK  |   404    |
 +------+----------+-----+----------+
 |Public|   OK     | 404 |   404    |
 +------+----------+-----+----------+
 }}}

 Whether or not things are publicly viewable, they should not have broken
 links on the admin side.
