 Consider the following bulk selected posts:

 '''table 1'''
 {{{
 +-------+-----------+
 | Name  | Category  |
 +-------+-----------+
 | P1    | A         |
 | P2    | A         |
 | P3    | B         |
 +-------+-----------+
 }}}

 With this selection I performed 2 simple actions.

 What I did '''first''' was '''adding category C'''. In this case both
 category A and B where not checked in the bulk edit form. The resulting
 after this first bulk action was the following:

 '''table 2'''
 {{{
 +-------+-----------+
 | Name  | Category  |
 +-------+-----------+
 | P1    | A, C      |
 | P2    | A, C      |
 | P3    | B, C      |
 +-------+-----------+
 }}}

 The '''second''' bulk edit action I wanted to perform on these posts was
 '''removing category A'''. Again neither A, B or C was checked in the bulk
 edit form. So I tried to check and again uncheck the category called A.
 Unfortunately I got the same result as shown in table 2.
