What changed

  • Ignore repeated post and taxonomy Quick Edit saves while the current AJAX request is active.
  • Clear the guard when the request completes, including failed requests.
  • Add QUnit coverage for both editors.

Why

Double-clicking Quick Edit can submit duplicate requests. The first response removes the inline-edit row, while the second response then operates on missing markup.

Validation

  • QUnit tests pass.
  • JavaScript coding standards pass.
  • JavaScript type checking passes.
  • Built-files check passes.
  • PHP coding standards checks pass in CI.

@irozum Thanks for the review. I added the requested @property {boolean} saving entry to the top-level inlineEditPost namespace docblock and pushed it in commit 3e3dcd3e73.
