Comment:

 I have to reopen this ticket, because exclude part is also relevant in
 this case. Examples:

 1) Many users upload several photos + featured image to one post. They set
 up featured image and then they want to show all other uploaded pictures
 in the end of post. But current modal window does not allow exclude one
 image from the whole gallery.

 2) When somebody uploads 15 photos to one post, there is no "Gallery" tab
 which could diplay all images uploaded (attached) to this post. To display
 all these images in post I have to select (and click) every uploaded
 image? Clicking 15 times is not a good user experience, in WP 3.4.x they
 could only simply select the whole Gallery (and all relevant images)...

 3) Upload 10 photos, select all of them and insert them into post. Come
 back after two months and several other posts. Upload another new relevant
 photo which you want to add to this old post. This new image is not
 automatically associated with current gallery in post and you have to add
 it manually.

 I do not understand why there is no "Gallery" tab in current modal window
 and relationships between posts and uploaded images are degraded? We have
 "Attached to" column in Media library, but it is not possible to see
 somewhere which media are attached?

 We had several questions from our users which tested 3.5. They like new
 modal window, but it is not possible to work as usual and removing
 "Gallery" tab is a pain and MAJOR user experince problem, I guess...
