Comment:

 In [changeset:"33096"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="33096"
 Check for all required caps before (un)sticking a post.

 In cases where a user has the `edit_others_posts` capability but not
 `publish_posts`, it was possible for that user to unstick a post after
 editing,
 since the input field was never made available in that context.

 Props ericmann, chriscct7.
 Fixes #24153.
