Usually the bug reporter and the tester are the same (although that fails to solve the issue if they don't understand the initial problem). In this case, the reporter was unable to be the tester, so I took over testing. I certainly learned a lesson about testing based solely upon the bug report. I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you.
Understandable. However, please confirm that this will be fixed in 5.4.3?

Apologies for the delay. Among other things, another revision came out before I was able to post, so I wanted to make sure there were no reversions.
Here's what I did to test after the dev came back with the fix:
I. THE BACKEND CONFIGURATION
upgrade to the latest revision
(take a snapshot...unimportant really, but it happened)
change nagiosql to nagiosqldoug in /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/config.inc.php
mysql > CREATE DATABASE nagiosqldoug;
mysqldump -uroot -pnagiosxi > /tmp/nagiosql_export.sql
DROP DATABASE nagiosql; (could have done this in the mysqldump theoretically, but didn't seem to be working)
mysql -uroot -pnagiosxi nagiosqldoug < /tmp/nagiosql_export.sql
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'nagiosql'@'localhost';
restart nagios, mysql, and httpd
(check the php scripts to make sure they aren't giving errors...just a sanity check)
II. THE ACTUAL TEST
Click "Change a single configuration option" in the Bulk Modifications Tool.
Change max attempts to 10 using hostgroup
change check interval to 5 just for good measure using hostgroup
set process perfdata to skip using a servicegroup
Everything looks good. Please let me know if I've missed something in your workflow.

Yes, the procedure outlined works in 5.4.3. Unfortunately, I do not yet have a release date for 5.4.3.
I believe the scope of testing would best be determined by a Nagios developer. Perhaps check with rkenned, he seemed to grasp the behavior outlined in our original bug report.
We look forward to seeing the fix in the next release.

Unfortunately, rkennedy is no longer with Nagios. However, I'm confident this fixes your issue. I just wanted to double-check with you that what I did made sense.
Sadly, still no 5.4.3 release date of which I'm aware.
