@ Lars Olesen: I don't disagree. Metatag seems to be coming along and may get a second look from us once it's beyond an alpha release.

@Kelly Hays: Yes, Media module will do what you are describing, and we prefer having all of our Media management in one place, whether it's inserting in a text area, or a file field.

@Steve Krueger: Thanks for the recommendation on "Basic". Looks promising, but lack of HTML5 and responsive design support is a deal breaker for us.

@Your Name: I can imagine a specific situation where you would want to limit the users in a community from viewing other files in the media library and IMCE would be a better choice, but for most of our sites, the client needs to be able to see all of the library so it's not an issue. As for it not being well maintained... other than the issue queue being a little over loaded, I don't see it. There are regular commits, it has wide support of the community (27,000+ installs), and many of the largest Drupal firms sponsor significant work on the project.
