Comment (by gavinwye):

 @ademos, Thanks for nudge. It had completely fallen off my radar.

 I've quickly sketched up something that I think would solve the problem.
 The biggest change is tags should be displayed for posts that are being
 edited in the tags field. At the moment the it is implied that the tags
 are not there. The same pattern should be used to remove tags as is used
 to remove the posts.

 I've also take this opportunity to make some other changes to the
 architecture of this area. Currently the bulk edit component is displayed
 below the title bar which menas that the column headings are don't match
 up with the posts below. Pulling the bulk edit component out and placing
 it about the title bar would solve that. It then also seems sensible to
 rearrange the five drop down lists that are there as well.

 My one question is, should you be able to bulk add tags here? I've added
 it, but all of the other functionality here is to do with editing existing
 values not adding. But I can't see a better place for this and it makes
 sense to me to be here.

 Here's the sketch:

 A few final points. This ticket has been open for a long time with little
 interest. So is that fact that this doesn't work really a big problem?
 Should this even be fixed? How many users would benefit?

 It would be good to know your thoughts.
