We tried in vain -- a noble but ultimately failed effort -- to reduce the number of fields for attachments from four (title, caption, alt, description) to one (caption for images, title otherwise). Alternative text needed to stay for accessibility reasons, of course.
Eventually title returned due to heavy plugin reliance. Description is too used by too many plugins (often times incorrectly -- the caption is more likely the proper field), hence its less-than-triumphant return today.
Version 3.5 has tried to streamline media in a number of ways. Removing fields may have been too much at once, as it forced not only a user interface change, but a paradigm change as well.
Finally, on upload we populate the description field with IPTC/EXIF captions, rather than the caption field. See #22768, this should be fixed. For now, Description stays.
This commit also restores 'Title' attribute editing to the main tab of the Edit Image dialog. The "Title" field no longer populates title attributes for <img> tags by design (for accessibility and other purposes, see #18984). So, here is a more obvious 'workaround' for the tooltip community.
Finally, this:
* Cleans up the post.php attachment editor, including by showing a prettier form of the mime type.
* Enables plugins to specifically hide attachment_fields_to_edit from either post.php (where you can create meta boxes) or the modal (which you may not want to clutter), for compatibility reasons.
* Hides the 'Describe this file...' placeholder when a field is read-only in the modal.

* Hide 'select all' checkboxes in list tables.
* Hide a non-functioning link in the custom fields metabox.
* Hide non-functioning buttons in the featured image box (same as in 3.4).

In get_post_type_capabilities(), make sure create_posts reflects customizations to the edit_posts capability when create_posts is not specifically set.

* Adds the code required to include the new media scripts, styles, and settings to `media_button()`.
* Improves script dependencies, namely making `media-upload` require `media-views`.
* Some CSS tweaks for the making the new button work well with QuickPress.

* Attachments now go through post.php, edit_post(), the like, and have show_ui set to true.
* Taxonomies attached to the media library now appear in the admin menu (if show_ui).
* Editing, cropping, uploading, etc. is still very rough, but mostly functional.
API-wise:
* New function: get_taxonomies_for_attachments(). Like get_taxonomies(), for taxonomies specifically registered against attachments.
* Brings taxonomy support from the posts list table to the media list table. Expect them to converge soon.
* wp_insert_attachment() now handles taxonomies like wp_insert_post(). Also expect them to converge soon.
* New edit_form_after_title hook.

Using the new buttons:
* Button classes are now stackable.
* All buttons should use a base class of "button".
* Buttons default to the gray style (formerly "button-secondary"). Buttons can add a style by adding additional classes. To make a primary button, add the "button-primary" class.
* Buttons can be rendered in various sizes. In addition to the default size, you can add "button-large", "button-small", or "button-tiny".
For backwards compatibility reasons, "button-primary" and "button-secondary" both work as standalone classes.
get_submit_button() has been adjusted to handle shorthand button classes (i.e. button classes can be passed without the "button-" prefix).

Please note that this commit does not integrate media into the existing UI. If you would like to see the new UI, navigate to the post editor and run the following in your browser's Javascript console:
new wp.media.controller.Workflow().render().modal.open();
The Javascript is broken up into two files, with the slugs media-models and media-views.
* media-models: The models are UI agnostic, and can be used independent of the views. If you'd like to create custom UIs, this is the script for you.
* media-views: This is the Media Experience. The views (and controllers) depend on the models (which are listed as a dependency and will automatically be included thanks to wp_enqueue_script). The views also require the media templates, media-view styles, and the plupload bridge settings. Perhaps we should create a function to include the whole shebang, but in the meantime...
To include media-views in the admin, run the following PHP in or after 'admin_enqueue_scripts':
wp_enqueue_script( 'media-views' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'media-views' );
wp_plupload_default_settings();
add_action( 'admin_footer', 'wp_print_media_templates' );

* Move layout column setup into render_screen_meta() so that the number of columns is available earlier.
* Store the user provisioned number of columns in an instance var.
* Access the var with get_columns()
* Move all templates away from the screen_layout_columns global to the get_columns() method.
* Deprecate the global
* Remove the no longer needed check for 'auto' in the user option.
* Cast the user option to an int.
