16437	wp_category_checklist should have name parameter	takien		"I found [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-admin/includes/template.php#L64 wp_category_checklist] is useful for creating my plugin/theme settings options. Unfortunately, it's currently don't have name parameter, the name is statically defined as '''post_category''' in the ''Walker_Category_Checklist'' default walker.

[[BR]]
''wp_category_checklist( $post_id = 0, $descendants_and_self = 0, $selected_cats = false, $popular_cats = false, $walker = null, $checked_ontop = true )''

[[BR]]
where it should be something like[[BR]]

''wp_category_checklist( $post_id = 0, $descendants_and_self = 0, $selected_cats = false, $popular_cats = false, $walker = null, $checked_ontop = true, $name='post_category' )''

So we don't need to create a new walker just to change the name.
Thank you."	enhancement	new	normal	Awaiting Review	General	3.0.4	minor		close	steph@…
