### Bug Fixes

- `mediaFinalize` now returns the post-finalize attachment (transformed from the REST response), so the upload-media queue can refresh the in-flight attachment URL. Required for the front-end `srcset` to render on client-side-media uploads that exceeded the big-image threshold.
- Template actions panel: Fix the keyboard activation of the "Change template" preview so it only opens the swap modal on <kbd>Enter</kbd> / <kbd>Space</kbd> ([#78641](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78641)).
