I have trawled back through the media-upload and it appears that the media item – when uploaded through ‘add featured image’ has $send set to false so does not show the insert into post button.
Can anyone help – is this a bug?
Featured image appears to explicitly relate that uploaded image to the registered post type of which it has been uploaded.
If that registered post type does not have an editor (support = > editor) then the media item will not display the ‘insert into post’ button when browsing for that same media item in post types that do have an editor.
Is this where I submit this as a bug?

If you mean to say ‘You can only make an image a ‘featured’ image if it’s attached to the post.’ then yes. Not a bug.
You WOULD submit bugs at http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ but I’m not really sure this is one.
if there ist any other upload button in the new post screen, like me I have add to group file icon from file manager plugin, removed file manager and the upload media button came back
Removal of line 1311 (from version 3.2.1) on /wp-admin/includes/media.php appears to solve the problem for me. I don’t know what the consequences of this are (yet), perhaps somebody could elaborate?
1311: if ( $send )
