Comment (by helen):

 Notes thus far from me, please everybody test and also make notes:

 === Parity with the list table view ===

 * Needs link to post.php (edit screen), possibly in the sidebar when
 selected, between "Edit image" (when there) and "Delete Permanently". Open
 to suggestions.
 * Needs date filter.
 * Need to discuss whether we need to also have parity with sorting by
 various columns, filtering by author/uploader (semi-hidden), attached
 unattached items, and comment count.
 * Bulk edit (currently just delete). Perhaps a switch into a distinct
 multiple select mode, e.g. the way iOS handles it.
 * Expose "Add new" workflow - drag-anywhere-to-upload is not visible, and
 not universally accessible. Probably just showing the uploader as in the
 modal.

 === Other ===

 * Select first item when loading the screen.
 * Don't need to show checkbox for a selected item in this view.
 * Show "No results" rather than (or in addition to?) uploader when
 filtered to no items.
 * What does an empty library look like?

 === Related ===

 * Keyboard accessibility: #23560.
 * Persistent option for view mode (not just for media): #16774, #20335,
 #22222.
