Expanding new Media Uploader in WordPress 3.5
You can add inputs and fields to attachments by hooking into attachment_fields_to_edit. This will add fields to both the modal as well as the attachment editor.

Upload specific images to specific folder
In your answer you said that desired path is something like wp-content\uploads\state-name\destination\ where state-name is a taxonomy term and destination is the slug of one destination CPT.

Where do the favicons for Media Files come from
To summarize the discussion in the comments, the answer for the question as it is asked is that it is not possible. The web standards as they are right now do not have a facility to declare a favicon for PDF files, only for the whole domain via the favicon.ico file. You can try to … Read more
What is the best practice for renaming WordPress media files?
As Rarst has explained, you can’t really directly edit your database, or you’ll risk killing the serialized data. Your options are thus to: delete the file and re-upload it with its new name (obviously has the downside of having to reinsert it everywhere it was being used), or to use one of the media renaming … Read more
Removing default image size list in Media Box
Exactly the same code as Mridul, but different filter: function wp_70048_remove_image_sizes($sizes) { unset($sizes[‘thumbnail’]); unset($sizes[‘medium’]); unset($sizes[‘large’]); return $sizes; } add_filter(‘image_size_names_choose’, ‘wp_70048_remove_image_sizes’); Tested with WP 3.4.2
