At the moment there doesn't appear to be a way to replace media - that is, to click on a media element, and select a different piece of media for that element. That's not a big deal at the moment, but we're going to move to a world where media settings are more complex - where alignment can be specified, referencing can be specified and permitted, so on and so forth.

The result of this is that media elements will have a lot of data associated with them - media it's pretty hard to type out again if you find that the image (or video, or...whatever) needs to be replaced. It would be good to have a way of replacing images without losing the associated caption, size and alignment.
