 Using WordPress 3.4.2, go to Posts, and click on one of the tags on one of
 your posts. The URL now contains tag=<tag>, and the screen shows the first
 20 posts with that tag.

 Now click the Apply button just next to the "Bulk Actions" drop-down at
 the top left.

 I expect this to reload the page but otherwise have no effect.

 Instead, it reloads the page without the tag=<tag> URL parameter, and
 shows the first 20 posts (irrespective of tag).

 This is surprising and confusing - it's easy to accidentally hit "Apply"
 without having chosen an action, but at first glance it looks like nothing
 has happened. The user can then go on to do a bulk action (e.g., add
 category) without realising the tag they previously had selected is now no
 longer selected.

 Note that filters (e.g., by category) that are set up using the Filter
 button *are* preserved when Bulk Actions / Apply is chosen - it's just
 tags that are lost.
