Comment:

 I'd like to reopen this ticket. The previous resolution indicated that it
 was a duplicate, I looked at the ticket indicated, and it didn't address
 this issue.
 This issue, as others above have mentioned, is a big sticking point.
 Slideshows that use attached images are a pain to update because even
 though deleted, they remain in the slideshow. To fix, users must go to the
 Media Library and permanently delete the images. It's not well thought
 out.

 This impacts many people.

 I think the default behavior for deleting a media item in a post or page
 should be to automatically remove it from the post. It make the most
 sense, since if you're deleting it, you no longer need it attached.
