 In WP 2.3, a post's current categories were listed at the top of the
 categories list for easy identification.

 Since the move to the Walker class, that is no longer true.

 Attached
  1. Uses the Walker twice to put checked categories first.
  2. Does not change the DB queries.  It post-processes the old ones.  We
 could only query for categories that are/aren't checked for that post, but
 the post-processing method means that the query is the same for all posts.
 Good for query/object caching.
  3. Passes {{{$popular_categories}}} to {{{wp_category_checklist()}}} to
 save a query, reduce inconsistencies.
  4. Tweaks JS/AJAX.

 2.5.2?
