Description
With #21391 we have the new screen for attachment edits.
nacin:
media-new.php shows the old form. (Keep in mind it allows for multiple uploads at once.) What should this workflow be? I don't know yet.
So ideas are welcome. How can we improve it?

Replying to helenyhou:
Tempted to say change the "show" link to "edit" and just link to the new edit screen, even though that removes the convenience of uploading and editing the details of a batch at once.
Let's do it.

The show/hide links only show if you upload multiple files. So is it possible to detect if you've only uploaded a single file, and if so, redirect to the edit UI for that item?

What I tried to say in comment:5 was, when you upload a single file, the show/hide box is already expanded, correct? And if you upload multiple files you get a list of collapsed items. If we change 'Show' to an edit link, we also need to account for what happens when single items are uploaded. Do we just leave it collapsed and replace 'Show' with 'Edit'? Or perhaps redirect them directly to the edit screen?
