Comment (by bobbravo2):

 Replying to [comment:22 TomAuger]:
 > I feel that the checkboxes for inclusion / exclusion in the current
 (single) gallery actually belongs in the media list as a new column. The
 context is clear - we're in the "Gallery" tab, after all - the list of
 images being shown corresponds to the list of images that would be
 displayed with the [gallery] shortcode with no further options. I would
 not automatically infer some kind of "batch" operation upon the checked
 items, particularly if some care were taken about the nomenclature in the
 column heading, for example "Include in Gallery".

 like it has something to do with the Gallery. It ought to be changed to
 "details" anyway, even if we don't move forward with this additional
 column.
 Tom — great suggestions! I agree with you, and appreciate you're
 perspective. It makes much more sense for this patch to streamline the UX
 of the Gallery tab.

 '''I have a couple of questions:'''
 [[BR]]

 Does the gallery settings page trigger the checkboxes to appear?
 [[BR]]
 Or, are the checkboxes always present, and we just make the interface a
 radio button that selects wether the checkboxes are an include or exclude?
 [[BR]]
 In either case - how do you handle labeling what the checkboxes do?
