 As every function (posts, media, taxonomy, insert media popups) of
 wordpress came in different time, it looks differently, it must be
 operated differently, it is much more difficult to maintain and develop,
 it use different actions and filters for generaly the same thing ...

 I have walked through the all this pages, created wireframes and point out
 the differences and similarities.


 And i have came up with the IMO very simple solution, that would
 standardise all these screens, so they coul all share the same code and
 they will have all the functions, but in the same time they will be
 cleaner and easier to use, the same function will be on the same place and
 will be named the same, and it could higly reuse most of the code. And
 what's more, it ads some new interesting possibilities, e.g. mass edit.

 Please download the enclosed PDF with wireframes - there are the commented
 current pages at the begining, the last pages are then my new proposal.

 I think that now is the perfect time to do it, as there are plans for
 adding meta to taxonomies for the WP 4.4 and this my approach would IMO
 save a lot of effort and use it for bigger good.
