Comment (by penyaskito):

 I had a look at this during #wceu Contributor Day in Seville.

 What I would expect from this feature is allowing the user to only edit
 the parent term. For that, we should add a inline-edit-parent.js providing
 the form for doing so. This can be based on inline-edit-tax.js.

 I would add a inline_edit_parent method in WP_Terms_List_Table, returning
 the form for editing this.

 WP_Terms_List_Table::get_bulk_actions should return a edit-parent action,
 which we need to handle at edit-tags.php.

 Otherwise, we need a new page with a new form for doing that, which I
 don't think it is consistent with the rest of the interface.

 Does this make sense?
