 * Hi,
 * It seems the media category filter in the WP media table does not work. It defaults
   always to view all when I click on filter after selecting a category.
    However,
   when I click on a category itself in the table or when I go to the categories
   and click on the number of items, then it does work.
 * Any ideas what causes this?
 * Thanks
 * Tom
