New description:

 In the current setup, there is no way to modify the current state or views
 when the media manager is opened from the "Add Media" button. By the time
 you can modify anything, all the default views have been rendered and all
 of the events have been fired.

 It would be helpful to check for the existence of a callback, and if it
 exists, run that before returning the workflow.

 My patch does this, which you could invoke in this way:
 {{{
 wp.media.editor.extend = function(workflow){
         // Manipulate the workflow here
 }
 }}}

 Thoughts? This is only for the default media manager that is invoked by
 clicking the Add Media button.
