Previously, when a view had "Always show the checkboxes" enabled and the user navigated directly to it, the first attempt to run an action on a selected row (e.g. Acknowledge problems) failed with the error message "No rows selected to perform actions for.". Re-selecting the row and retrying the action then worked as expected.

The command popup forms in the action menu are rendered as part of the page header. On a freshly opened view URL without a pre-existing selection identifier, the forms did not yet know the selection id and therefore submitted without it. The server treated the submission as a new, empty selection.

The selection id is now allocated before the action menu is rendered, so the first submission carries the same selection id that the checkboxes use, and the selected rows are recognised on the first attempt.
