Comment:

 Confirmed 3 bugs on the posts list page:

 * `<input type="number" step="1" min="1" max="999" class="screen-per-page"
 name="wp_screen_options[value]" id="edit_post_per_page" maxlength="3"
 value="20" />`[[BR]][[BR]]`maxlength="3"` is invalid for `<input
 type="number" />`. This is a hangover from when it used to be
 `type="text"`; `max="999"` does what we want it to do. The `maxlength`
 attribute can be removed.

 * The "View" link for each post has `rel="permalink"`. This is from the
 WCLR spec, which is obsolete. `permalink` should be replaced with
 `bookmark`, from the
 [https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/semantics.html#link-type-bookmark
 HTML5 spec].

 * In the Quick Edit table, there's a `colspan="<?php echo
 $this->get_column_count(); ?>"`, but it doesn't seem to be necessary. It's
 a bit of a classic, introduced in [8973], when the Quick Edit table became
 an entire table, instead of just another row in the post list table. It
 can go.
