It would be a huge time-saver if Craft has the ability to edit multiple items at once. Currently, you can bulk delete elements on the Entries index listing in the Control Panel by selecting multiple entries and selecting Delete from the Actions dropdown, but it would be very useful to change the values of any fields the selected entries have in common.

As an example, I have added an Artist (Element) field to Assets in my project. When I bulk upload a ton of images, it would be great if I could select multiple assets and edit the Artist field for each in one go.

WordPress has an implementation of this kind of functionality, see https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/#bulk-edit

Oh my god, yes. I can't tell you how much time it takes up when trying to change large groups of category fields. :-/

Had a client asking for this today. Will try the plugin but this definitely needs to be in core!
