Comment:

 When you are in a write new post window, post_id is set to temp_ID, which
 is a large negative number. This ends up as the post_parent of atachments
 that are updated in the browse-all tab, so these attachments get a parent
 set to this large negative number, which confuses WordPress.

 Also if you are in the edit post window and update an attachment in the
 browse-all tab, it is moved to the post that you are editing and is lost
 in the post where it was originally attached.
