Description

On administrative menus like user editing, Manage posts, comments, pages and so on form options are listed at the top of the page but not at the bottom
[Delete] [Show all dates] [View all categories] 1 2 3 ... 68 Next »

form content

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: 1 2 3 ... 68 Next »

Consider duplicating all options at in the footer menu, because if you select a large number of items like when you are pruning spambot created users, then have to scroll all the way to the top of the page to click the delete button it's inefficient.

Consider changing to show instead:

[Delete] [Show all dates] [View all categories]_ 1 2 3 ... 68 Next »

form content

[Delete] [Show all dates] [View all categories]_ 1 2 3 ... 68 Next »

Agreed -- and if there's some crazy reason why the Delete (and other) buttons can't be displayed twice... I think most people would prefer them at the bottom, rather than the top. I've been through similar tasks, looking to delete entries out of long lists (tidying up my "tags" list in this case). Most people read DOWN the list, not UP... would be best to have the Delete button at the bottom.
