 This is apart of a bigger project for my staff and I, you can find the
 context here https://www.theportlandcompany.com/2017/09/10/proposed-
 improvements-to-the-wordpress-ui/.

 Our goal is to clean up the UI with two principles in mind:

 - Context Visibility - Only show something when it's in context.
 - Add With Purpose - If something, such as padding or margins, don't serve
 a purpose, don't add them.
 - Simplify Number of Actions - If a step can be avoided in a process,
 avoid it.

 Currently, when viewing something like All Posts, all of the edit settings
 are visible for every single item.

 We developed a Plugin to hide these options until the relevant item is
 hovered: https://wordpress.org/plugins/enhanced-quickedit-bar/


 Benefits
 - This decreases vertical space, especially on mobile.
 - This also eliminates visual distraction.
 - And respect the context that users don't really *need* to see all those
 options.

 We're open to revisions in hopes that this, or something similar to it,
 can be rolled into the UI.
