 Hello,

 I found an issue with Gutenberg. Adding an image is nicely done BUT when
 prompted to add [metadata], the text does not update the media library.

 This is an issue because, in the classic editor, you add a media then add
 it into the article. Therefore, the media is correctly labeled in your
 library and can be easily found again, should the need arise.

 Now, legends are only valid in the articles and the pictures are left
 alone in the library. There is no way to find them again, for a re-use in
 another article.

 So it would be nice if the adding media process would correctly tag the
 media, inside the library and not only inside the articles.

 Thanks.
