Comment:

 So adding the code below to {{{_wp_nav_menu_meta_box_object()}}} function
 in the {{{/wp-admin/includes/nav-menu.php}}}, my media files show up! I
 '''''DO NOT''''' want to do this. Is there any other way to inject this
 code or do something else to get the same results?

 {{{
         // Attachments have a status of 'inherit'
         } elseif ( 'attachment' == $object->name ) {
                 $object->_default_query = array(
                 'post_status' => 'inherit',
         );
 }}}

 It would be nice if I could filter and even set specific file types... I
 really only want to have the availability to add PDFs. I know I can go get
 the URL from the media library and add it as a Custom Link, but this is
 just so much nicer.
