#38934: Bug with Category selector view when using child categories

There seems to be a bug when editing a page and using child categories.
Lets say I have a category with ten child categories.
If I add on of those children to the page and then save the page, when I
come back to look at those categories the parent child relationship is
lost in the display. What I mean by this is that the master category will
noly display one child (the one that was picked for the page) the other
children are now displayed as if they were independent top level
categories.
This makes it very difficult to select the right categories for a post
when you come back to edit it.
The workaround is to deselect all categories and save the page. The parent
child relationship will then re-establish itself and the categories can be
selected.
