Comment (by markoheijnen):

 How I see it is that wp_insert_attachment() is a low level API so there
 are always checks needed. Same as for wp_insert_post.
 So checking if it is allowed to do should be in the xmlrpc method. No clue
 how it got handled in the backend. I do now from the user interface you
 only can attach an image when the post type is a public one.
