Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
We had a content type with an image file CCK field that was used on the parent and child node types.
This half works.
When you create the node (parent) is stores the two fields and displays them properly. But when you edit the node the parents file field entry is deleted.
This can be then fixed by adding the file again... but it's a bug.
It should probably be explicitly called out as a bad idea in the README documentation or fixed.

Turns out this is only true when using i18n to translate nodes.
... guess that makes the bug pretty edge case. So perhaps this is just a warning.
