 I'm currently change my plugins to use meta boxes instead of the filter
 'attachment_fields_to_edit' to add fields to the attachment edit screen.
 Adding meta boxes works as expected like for all other post types.

 They usual way to evaluate meta boxes is a callback on 'save_post' for all
 other post-types. At the moment there are two actions for the attachment
 post type: 'add_attachment' and 'edit_attachment'. I think it would be
 consistent to do the action 'save_post' also in 'wp_insert_attachment()'.
 Or at least provide an action like 'save_attachment'.
