Comment (by peterwilsoncc):

 I'm a little unclear on the advantage the proposed filter offers over
 `wp_insert_post_data`.

 With the exception of posts that have been untrashed, the `get_post()`
 call within the sample code should be in the object cache and be
 relatively quick.

 The complexity of the if statement in the proposed patch seems a lot to
 include for what appears to be a niche use case.

 A number of actions and filters in `wp_insert_post()` include the post
 object before any changes, would this be helpful to include in
 `wp_insert_attachment_data` and `wp_insert_post_data`?
