 Replying to [comment:8 duck_]:
 > I think the reason for Quick Edit not allowing you to remove all
 categories is because the jQuery serialize method doesn't pickup the
 catgories if all the boxes are unchecked
 ([http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-admin/js/inline-edit-
 post.dev.js#L212 see inline-edit-post.js])

 I tell a lie... in fact it's to do with how {{{wp_update_post}}} handles
 an empty post_category[] array. Patch uses the trick used in the
 categories meta-box of adding an input with a fake term id.
