WordPress has supported custom page templates for over 12 years, allowing developers to create various layouts for specific pages.
While this feature is very helpful, it has always been limited to the 'page' post type and not was not available to other post types.
By opening up the page template functionality to all post types, we continue to improve the template hierarchy's flexibility.
In addition to the `Template Name` file header, the post types supported by a template can be specified using `Template Post Type: post, foo, bar`.
When at least one template exists for a post type, the 'Post Attributes' meta box will be displayed in the back end, without the need to add post type support for `'page-attributes'`. 'Post Attributes' can be customized per post type using the `'attributes'` label when registering a post type.

This introduces the singular `edit_term`, `delete_term`, and `assign_term` meta capabilities for terms, and switches the base capability name for tags from `manage_categories` to `manage_post_tags` and the corresponding `edit_post_tags`, `delete_post_tags`, and `assign_post_tags`.
All of these capabilities ultimately map to `manage_categories` so by default there is no change in the behaviour of the capabilities for categories, tags, or custom taxonomies. The `map_meta_cap` filter and the `capabilities` argument when registering a taxonomy now allow for control over editing, deleting, and assigning individual terms, as well as a separation of capabilities for tags from those of categories.

Introduces some consistency in the usage of the button CSS classes, fixes the
focus style for accessibility and responsiveness of the buttons.
- Adds the `button` class to all primary buttons make them responsive
- Removes all `secondary-button` classes and replaces it with button when needed. `button-secondary` shouldn't be used and exists just for backward compatibility reasons
- Replaces classes inside `submit_button()` with a shorthand for some buttons, and use an empty string for the default `button` class. Passing `button` is unnecessary
- Adjusts `get_submit_button()` to remove empty items

Longer passwords and passphrases are much more common than when post passwords were introduced all those eons ago, so let's increase the length of the `post_password` field from 20 to 255 characters.

User dropdowns in wp-admin have traditionally shown the users' display names.
However, this causes ambiguity when users share display names. To correct this,
we now show the unique user_login in parentheses after the display name.
The new `display_name_with_login` value for the `show` parameter of
`wp_dropdown_users()` enables this functionality. The default value of `show`
has not been changed, for backward compatibility, but all instances of
`wp_dropdown_users()` in core wp-admin have been switched.
This changeset also reduces some duplicated logic when assembling a user list
when `include_selected` is true.

* Introduce `is_post_type_viewable( $post_type_object )`
* Separate the HTML bits from the translatable bits in the `post` messages array in `edit-form-advanced.php`
* Don't show certain UI pieces when a post is not viewable on the front end
When a custom post type item is not viewable on the front end, we don't want to show links to View it (on the front end) all over the admin. We also want to hide the Preview link, et al. We also want our admin messages to not contain said links.
Custom post types with `public_queryable` set to `false` are not viewable on the front end.
`'page'` is viewable on the front end, but `'page'` is a `_builtin` type, and `public_queryable` is set to `false` when it is registered - see `WP::parse_request()` for when `public_queryable` gets used.
This is confusing, but also somewhat straightforward: to determine if a post type is viewable on the front end, we can check one way for `_builtin => true` and another way for `_builtin => false`:
`$post_type->publicly_queryable || ( $post_type->_builtin && $post_type->public )`
If a post type is `publicly_queryable`, it's viewable. If that value is `false`, it is viewable if it's a `_builtin` type that is also `public`.
I am in search of edge cases, so this shall land.

Users are frequently confused as to why the content they've entered or the page template they've selected doesn't apply for this one page. Showing and saving items that don't do anything hurts trust.
Developers can elect to turn on the editor should they be using it for something. If the content isn't empty, the editor will show so that users still have access to their content.

Both functions only need to read `taxonomy`, yet they extract every available variable from `$box['args']`. Even if those variables were useful, there is no attempt to pass them to anything, and scope in PHP does not allow them to be scooped up by inner functions without being passed directly.

We tried in vain -- a noble but ultimately failed effort -- to reduce the number of fields for attachments from four (title, caption, alt, description) to one (caption for images, title otherwise). Alternative text needed to stay for accessibility reasons, of course.
Eventually title returned due to heavy plugin reliance. Description is too used by too many plugins (often times incorrectly -- the caption is more likely the proper field), hence its less-than-triumphant return today.
Version 3.5 has tried to streamline media in a number of ways. Removing fields may have been too much at once, as it forced not only a user interface change, but a paradigm change as well.
Finally, on upload we populate the description field with IPTC/EXIF captions, rather than the caption field. See #22768, this should be fixed. For now, Description stays.
This commit also restores 'Title' attribute editing to the main tab of the Edit Image dialog. The "Title" field no longer populates title attributes for <img> tags by design (for accessibility and other purposes, see #18984). So, here is a more obvious 'workaround' for the tooltip community.
Finally, this:
* Cleans up the post.php attachment editor, including by showing a prettier form of the mime type.
* Enables plugins to specifically hide attachment_fields_to_edit from either post.php (where you can create meta boxes) or the modal (which you may not want to clutter), for compatibility reasons.
* Hides the 'Describe this file...' placeholder when a field is read-only in the modal.

Most users don't realize that the Featured Image meta box exists; if they do, few use it.
Restores the old meta box UI, including the admin_post_thumbnail_html filter. If a plugin is using _wp_post_thumbnail_html() in conjunction with Thickbox elsewhere, it will also magically still work.
Specific underlying changes:
* Converts the modal view to use the view manager, which means that a call to open() will automatically call render and attach if necessary.
* Doesn't automatically set a state in wp.media, to allow code to customize the states to be added before activation.

Revises the concept of the media controller and workspace views (i.e. two central points of control) to be more granular. The main media object is now the `Frame`, which is a hybrid view and state machine.
The state machine is a collection of states, which are just generic instances of `Backbone.Model`. This circumvents the problem of juggling global parameters when changing states. Each state contains its own event loop. All events are also forwarded to the frame itself (as is the case in all model/collection relationships).
The frame view contains several regions, each of which can be overridden without harming or re-rendering the other regions. These work well when used in conjunction with the state machine events.
This removes the upload sidebar (don't worry, visible upload UI will return). Drag and drop uploading still works. The ability to upload has been abstracted into its own view (instead of being attached to the central workspace view).
Editing galleries is temporarily broken — the gallery creation and editing experiences will be unified in a future patch.
Adds events to detect dragging changes in `wp.Uploader` and adds methods to detect and leverage browser support for CSS3 transitions.
