Comment (by nacin):

 In [21948]:

 Use the regular post type UI for editing single media items (attachments).
  * Attachments now go through post.php, edit_post(), the like, and have
 show_ui set to true.
  * Taxonomies attached to the media library now appear in the admin menu
 (if show_ui).
  * Editing, cropping, uploading, etc. is still very rough, but mostly
 functional.

 API-wise:
  * New function: get_taxonomies_for_attachments(). Like get_taxonomies(),
 for taxonomies specifically registered against attachments.
  * Brings taxonomy support from the posts list table to the media list
 table. Expect them to converge soon.
  * wp_insert_attachment() now handles taxonomies like wp_insert_post().
 Also expect them to converge soon.
  * New edit_form_after_title hook.
