Description
After deleting a media item permanently and try to directly add a new one via the 'title-menu-link' (the button-link near the "Media" title in the admin screen) will result in a death link ("Invalid post type").
Follow these steps to reproduce the death link(s):
If you have no unattachted media in your library, first do this:
- Media > Add New
- From the 'title' menu "Add New" (Button near "Media Library" at the top)
- Add a random image/file and press "Save changes"
- You'll get redirected back to the overview of all your media.
If you already have one or more unattached media items in the library:
- Click on the "Delete Permanently" link of the file you just uploaded (the unattached file) (and press oke in the alert dialog)
- This is where something goes wrong: You'r now redirected to the edit.php page where you can read: "Item permanently deleted.". Now click again on the "Add New" link in the title-menu near the title "Media"
- You're now redirected to an invalid page: "Invalid post type".

Is this a clean install? I'm being redirected to upload.php, not edit.php, and the message I get is "Media attachment permanently deleted.".
I will try again with a clean install. I found this bug a few weeks ago when it was a clean install, but in the meantime I've installed some themes and pluguins and upgraded to the latest version.
Checked again, and I left 1 plugin active, but also deactivated I still have this issue. I'll test it out as soon as possible with a clean install.

I was able to reproduce this bug again on a clean (3.3.1) install. If needed I can provide access to my (clean - 3.3.1) wordpress install.

- Keywords has-patch added
- Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to 3.4
I can reproduce with referers disabled. The page that says "Invalid post type" is post-new.php?post_type=attachment
.
Adding _wp_http_referer
to delete links in _get_row_actions()
(similarly to WP_MS_Users_List_Table) fixes this.
The patch also improves readability a bit.

Can not reproduce. @SergeyBiryukov or @Jordi-Fun, can you still? If so, more specific steps to reproduce (or even a video) appreciated :D
