Comment:

 Nacin and tar.gz's comments are both accurate. The core gallery UI is now
 focused on editing galleries with explicitly added images (rather than
 using all the images uploaded to the post). The UI will successfully read
 a gallery with include/exclude parameters, but will always print a gallery
 shortcode with the ids parameter when updated.

 >  * A UI filter, similar to "Show only images" or "Show audio files",
 that would be "Show uploads to this post". (None of these are in core at
 the moment.)

 See #22514.

 >  * Some kind of indication that an image was chosen as the featured
 image for the current post, perhaps only when viewing the this-post-only
 filter. As 3.5's goal was to separate distinct workflows, this will not
 happen now. But if featured images get some kind of play in the future in
 the main media modal (something DrewAPicture has been pushing; he may have
 some ticket references), I believe this makes solid sense.

 See #22494.

 >  * When you upload 15 images, all of them immediately become selected by
 default. Of course, there is no way to revive such a multi-select later
 without individual clicks. Some kind of "Select all" and/or shift+click
 and/or drag-to-select functionality. This was discussed but won't make v1.

 See #22502.
