New description:

 Before 3.5, an attachment's parent post meant "this is the post this file
 belongs to; it will automatically show up in the gallery". In 3.5, if it's
 even set, it means "this is the post this file was originally uploaded
 to".

 After just [http://make.wordpress.org/ui/2012/11/13/i-put-another-new-
 user-through-the-media/ seeing] a user trying to insert an image into a
 post using the "Attached To" column (around 2:30), I'm thinking maybe we
 should hide that column.
