Comment (by Fab1en):

 OK, so from a technical point of view, we have to decide if the media
 widget allows to select more than one media (ie playlist and gallery).
 [attachment:32417.5.patch The current patch] only allows a single media
 selection (image, audio or video).

 In the case of multi-media, do we store the resulting shortcode in the
 widget, or an array of attachment ids ?

 Storing the shortcode would allow to manage options easily (columns, image
 links, ...) whereas storing an array of ids would allow developers to
 customize the widget rendering a bit further.
