#19288: Erroneous custom taxonomy screen menu behaviour
--------------------------+-----------------------------

 Severity:  trivial       |   Keywords:  needs-patch

 I don't think this could get any more edge case and it's of trivial
 severity, but I thought I'd report it for completeness' sake.

 If a user has the ability to manage terms on a post type, but not the
 ability to edit posts of that post type, and the post type has more than
 one taxonomy, then the post type menu doesn't expand as expected when
 viewing one of the term management screens for that post type.

 Steps to reproduce:

  * Register a custom post type that uses its own capability mapping
 (resulting in `edit_foos` etc).
  * Register at least two custom taxonomies for this post type, with or
 without its own capability mapping.
  * Give a user (or role) the ability to manage the taxonomy terms but not
 the ability to edit posts of the post type.

 When viewing one of the term management screens for the given post type,
 the menu doesn't expand as expected (although the new 3.3 fly-outs do
 show).
