+/**
+ * Let content staff edit media details.
+ *
+ * WordPress maps editing an attachment to edit_posts when the user uploaded it
+ * and to edit_others_posts when someone else did. Content Editors and Reviewers
+ * can upload files but have neither capability, so they can't set the title,
+ * alt text, caption or description of any image, including their own uploads.
+ *
+ * This lets anyone who can edit LearnDash courses (edit_courses) edit any
+ * attachment's details. Deleting attachments keeps core's rules.
