Bulk editing of posts (and pages) use a GET

[andersborg]

WordPress issues a GET with the arguments for doing a bulk edit, which means a limit of around 60 edits in one go (due to a 1000+ symbol limit).

Any reason why bulk edits aren't done via POST? Is it due to 303 POST/GET conversion? Any other way to solve it so (only) POST could be used?

Example of URL causing the issue (I tried to edit merely 600 posts):

​https://[somedomain]/wp-admin/edit.php?s=&post_status=all&post_type=post&_wpnonce=0ddbd96e67&_wp_http_referer=%2Fwp-admin%2Fedit.php&action=edit&m=0&cat=0&post_format=&paged=1&post_category%5B%5D=0&tax_input%5Bpost_tag%5D=&post_author=-1&comment_status=closed&ping_status=&_status=-1&sticky=-1&bulk_edit=Update&post_view=list&screen=edit-post&post%5B%5D=957898&post%5B%5D=957881&post%5B%5D=957815&post%5B%5D=957761&post%5B%5D=957634&post%5B%5D=957631&post%5B%5D=957601&post%5B%5D=957559&post%5B%5D=957338&post%5B%5D=957041&post%5B%5D=956907&post%5B%5D=956898&post%5B%5D=956855&post%5B%5D=956705&post%5B%5D=956676&post%5B%5D=956654&post%5B%5D=956594&post%5B%5D=956592&post%5B%5D=956490&post%5B%5D=956483&post%5B%5D=956465&post%5B%5D=956459&post%5B%5D=956348&post%5B%5D=956339&post%5B%5D=956327&post%5B%5D=956286&post%5B%5D=956273&post%5B%5D=956254&post%5B%5D=956205&post%5B%5D=956188&post%5B%5D=956165&post%5B%5D=955897&post%5B%5D=955879&post%5B%5D=955862&post%5B%5D=955856&post%5B%5D=955853&post%5B%5D=955849&post%5B%5D=890391&post%5B
