Comment(by jane):

 I agree with Denis that this is expected behavior. If someone selects all,
 the anticipated workflow is to immediately choose a bulk action. If
 someone acts on something in the list before doing so, they should uncheck
 it manually before firing the bulk action. Auto-deselecting it, while I
 can see how it might seem like a safety net here, overrides the
 interrupted bulk action workflow. If the interruptive action and the bulk
 action are different than the ones in this example, then the auto-deselect
 might not make sense. For example, replying to a comment should not
 override the select all. The only action that should remove it from the
 list would be moving to Trash. That said, this is when you are on the Edit
 Comments (All) screen. If you had used a text filter to only view Pending
 comments, and you approved one mid-bulk action, then I would expect the
 approved comment to disappear and not be included in the action since it
 is no longer pending. However, the reporter does not indicate that he is
 referring to a filtered view such as this.
