 This looks good.

 Could you update the patch to avoid having inline js there.

 I guess we need a new js file in {{{wp-includes/js}}} for this which we
 would then enqueue on the relevant admin page and a theme/plugin could
 enqueue on the front end if they were displaying this bit of ui for
 something like a wiki theme.
