 3.9 is bringing us tons of media improvements! This is super exciting.
 Let's make sure our new media elements have a unified UI. The attached
 image shows what an image, gallery, audio playlist, video playlist, and
 audio file currently look like in a post.

 To quickly summarize where we currently stand:
 - Images have a full-width, transparent black overlay with the "image"
 icon on the left and "x" on the right
 - Galleries have an opaque black overlay with the "gallery" icon and "x"
 icon clustered together on the left
 - Audio and playlists don't have an overlay; editing is brought up by
 double-clicking the block

 How can we make all three of these a consistent experience? Should the
 "edit" media button be that specific media type's icon (image, gallery,
 audio, audio playlist, video playlist) or should we use a generic "edit"
 icon for all of these blocks?
