which fills post_date_gmt, when not filled.

this block is missing from wp_insert_attachment function and it fills this column with current date time.

wp_list_table shows date from post_date_gmt so it is then confusing.

P.S.: wouldn't be better to have one function (wp_insert_post) and make wp_insert_attachment just somehow extend it for attachments? IMO they are (should be) 99 % same."	enhancement	closed	normal		Upload	3.4.2	normal	duplicate
