Comment (by afercia):

 Not sure this should be changed in a `<button>`. Links that point to a
 real resource (that "take you somewhere") should still be links and use an
 `<a>` tag. Just the "non-link" links, meaning `<a href="#">` and links
 with a URL fragment, e.g.:
 {{{
 <a href="#post_status" class="save-post-status hide-if-no-js
 button">OK</a>
 }}}
 when they don't point to a target within the current document and they "do
 something" in the page instead of taking you somewhere, they should be
 buttons instead.

 Anyway we should take care of all screens in the admin, including the
 network admin, not just themes.php. Wondering what's the best approach:
 all-in-one patch or discrete tickets? Any thoughts?
