Comment:

 There are two problems that are fixed in this patch.

 - UI for bulk edit when JS is disabled. User flow is as follows:

 1. Select posts that you want to bulk edit. Click Apply.

 2. A bulk edit user interface appears. You can click on the X icons to
 remove posts from bulk edit (which initiates another page load). New
 behavior: You can also selected other posts outside of the bulk edit title
 list if you want to include more posts without having to go back to step
 1. After you're done, click Update.

 3. You're redirected to the normal post list with a nice update message.

 - Fixed some inconsistent behavior with JavaScript bulk edit:

 After you have selected posts, choose "Bulk Edit", and click Apply, the
 user interface appears. However, if you uncheck one of your previously
 selected posts outside of the Bulk Edit user interface, that post's title
 is still in the Bulk Edit title div. Clicking "Update" and that post ends
 up not changed.

 On the other hand, if you select a post outside of the Bulk Edit user
 interface, that post's title doesn't appear in the Bulk Edit post title
 list. Clicking "Update" will also update that post.
