 * Since WordPress 4.1.0 the **wp_print_media_templates()** function doesn’t work
   anymore if you first remove the action and later add the same function again,
   only with a different name. ( for testing )
 *     ```
       remove_action( 'admin_footer', 'wp_print_media_templates' );
       add_action( 'admin_footer', 'my_print_media_templates' );
   
       function my_print_media_templates() {
   
       ...... 100% the same code as original for testing .....
   
       }
       ```
   
 * Looks like it breaks the Javascripts or something because there is no drop down
   functionality inside the backend, also the screen options panel at the top doesn’t
   work anymore.
