 Would be nice to be able to add a custom field and/or a post thumbnail
 from quick edit and the bulk edit.

 From a user standpoint, if I get a new theme that uses a custom field
 called (thumb) but I have hundreds of posts, the only way to add the CF
 would be to edit the individual post. Would be great if the quick edit,
 and bulk edit had an icon (similar to the Add media icons) that let me
 paste a custom field value.

 I think that as custom post types evolve this will have to be added as
 users will use bulk edit and quick edit much more.

 Say I was using a custom post type for items in a shopping cart, and I
 wanted to apply a coupon code to those items only, instead of having to
 edit each one individually, I could bulk edit.

 Similarly, if I wanted to reduce or increase prices on an individual
 basis, I could quick edit to change prices. this could be a plugin type of
 issue, but there should be a hook added to both quick edit and bulk edit
 that give plugins access to add additional fields to these areas.
