Comment (by raajtram):

 I feel like there should be a better way to allow copying the data for the
 uploaded files.

 In its present state, to copy the media's URL, you need to right-click and
 copy the Image URL and that URL is the thumbnail size (150x150 by default)
 which involves one more step of editing the URL manually.

 To copy/edit any other attributes of the media, you need to click on the
 "Edit" link which then is a _blank link.

 While the use for direct URLs might not be very popular for image, users
 do need directly URLs for media such as PDFs and ZIP files.

 A good solution IMO would be to divide the media-item div into columns of
 data (URL, ID, SIZE?) for the uploaded media

 Here's a quick mockup of what I'm thinking (not a designer, so pardon the
 inconsistencies):
