 * I selected 3 image files for thumbnail regeneration. The results was it made 
   NEW thumbnails for different images and NOT for the 3 selected.
 * I tried to update these 3 images but even after deleting the originals and reloading
   new ones, the old version remains.

 * We are using wp_delete_attachment() function to remove media library files and
   it seems to be working most of the time. In some cases it is not working, but
   I do not know why.
