Comment(by nacin):

 Replying to [comment:10 ryan]:
 > nacin's patch looks good except for the removal of the $posts_per_page
 global. That option is defined in the schema.  Perhaps it doesn't need to
 be made a global, but that can be argued in a different ticket.

 Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's the reading option for the number of
 posts to display per page in a theme. The global $posts_per_page variable
 itself is unused in admin, but in the off-chance a plugin used it, it is
 overridden to hold the screen options per_page value in post.php.

 I suppose this would make sense if it is being maintained for back compat,
 assuming that the admin used to rely on the same setting?
