I suggest we do this by setting the attachment parent(s) in postmeta, with (possibly) multiple keys named `_parent`, like so: {{{ +---------+---------+-------------------+------------+ | meta_id | post_id | meta_key | meta_value | +---------+---------+-------------------+------------+ | 1 | 123 | _parent | 456 | | 2 | 123 | _parent | 789 | +---------+---------+-------------------+------------+ }}} Here, 123 is the attachment object's ID, and 456 and 789 are the IDs of its associated post objects.
