{{{

Accessibility: Improve readability by removing unnecessary italic font
style.
Per Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0, big chunks of italic text
should be avoided.
Same applies to UI controls, since they're meant to be comfortably
readable by the largest possible audience, e.g.: label elements.
Removes italic font style from:
- the Quick Edit / Bulk Edit forms
- the Recovery Mode plugin error details
- the Image Editor inline help
