Comment (by gavinwye):

 @ademos: I agree that this would be a useful enhancement, I've just had to
 move a bunch of posts from one category to another and not being able to
 see the categories in the bulk edit mode was not helpful.

 I think it's simply a matter of displaying the categories or tags that are
 being used for the selected posts. However you would run in to
 complications if, you had selected multiple posts each with different
 categories. Which categories would be displayed? If you display all of
 them do you then when you update do you apply all of the categories or
 tags to all of the posts.

 So what is on the face of it a simple problem, I think more though on this
 is needed. I'm wondering if the command "edit" is a little misleading for
 users, as the functionality is really add.

 I'll think some more and post again if I think I have a solution.
