Also note that my comments were from looking at the Individual's Media Center (Media icon on the Individual's Information window) rather than the global Media Center (Tools->Picture Center). Same thoughts/concepts apply, but some of the details are different.

For anything other than 'source' media the Media center can also cycle through the individuals linked to the media, via the Next/Prev arrows in the right hand column on the Picture List tab. However, individuals indirectly connected via a source cannot be found via the Picture List tab even though the media shows as linked. It is so close!!
