Impression on the new media GUI

I got to play with it a bit, and here are some of my initial opinions:

1. The new media tree & pane view look nice.  The icons are nice.
2. Can't create the 'sounds' origin if one doesn't already exist.
3. I like the old drag-and-drop since I use it all the time.
4. I don't like opening items with temp file names.
5. I REALLY do not like storing the media data in the database.

My recommendations: keep the new GUI and the existing data structure.  The index dicts can be moved into the DB, but there're no real advantages of doing that either.  The index dict can also be improved to support same filename in separate dirs.
