Comment:

 This shouldn't really be handled in `WP_Screen` class, at least not in
 `WP_Screen::show_screen_options`. Not really responsible for that and
 makes it harder for others to add screen options.

 [attachment:34988.2.patch] is another patch, which simply doesn't add
 screen options for that screen.

 However, the real issue IMHO is that the term edit screen isn't in its own
 file, which means a list table is added without reason. For example, the
 posts list table is in `wp-admin/edit.php`, the edit post screen is in
 `wp-admin/post.php`, while here everything is in `edit-tags.php`.

 I'd rather see us introduce a new `term.php` file for editing a single
 term, if it can be done without breaking too much things.
