 == Deleting an Active Plugin via Bulk Actions Fails Silently
 === Description
 With the introduction of shinier updates in 4.6, it appears that the error
 messaging around deleting an activated plugin wasn't ported into the new
 system properly.

 To reproduce:

 On Plugins Screen, select an activated plugin.
 From "Bulk Actions" select "Delete"
 Click Apply
 Result:

 Nothing happens. Silent failure (to delete).

 Expected Result:

 Error message explaining that you can't delete activated plugins.

 In one case, I actually saw the expected error message after refreshing
 the plugins page, but I haven't been able to replicate that since.
