 Replying to [ticket:65042 namith.jawahar]:
 > There is no straight forward way to recover this slug back too as media
 library is not represented as a post type in the admin UI.

 There is a way to do it although it is not very obvious - you have to edit
 an attachment, then click "Screen Options" and check the "Slug" checkbox.

 > I propose that media slugs be appended by an alphanumeric string on file
 upload to avoid hogging valuable slugs from other public post types.

 There are plugins which do this already - for example:
