 editing the image here.

 I like the idea of pushing the image over to the right column, it reminds
 me of how the new modal is laid out. On the other hand, we ''are''
 sometimes editing the image here. That's why there's an 'Edit Image'
 button. As it stands with the media in the left column, the inline image
 editor has enough space to breathe. How would you handle the editor if the
 media were previewed in the right column?

 > - I find it more coherent to have the Title field close to the other
 text fields.

 I agree, but for consistency sake, see above.

 > (2) - An other minor issue: the file URL field is now much narrower than
 previously. I think that it should allow for line breaks, in order to have
 the full URL visible. And a nice touch would be if by clicking on that
 string, the whole URL would get auto-selected.

 This would be great. Do you have a patch?

 > (3) - Finally, a question regarding the naming of "Caption" and
 "Description" (now "Attachment Page Content"): is there any official
 method for overriding those labels, such as we can override the labels for
 Posts and Pages (with change_post_object_label() /
 change_post_menu_label() in functions.php)?

 I think currently all we've got are gettext and/or translation.
