Description
On the plugin screen, you have a nice list of every plugin with a handy checkbox to put them all on auto-update or delete them in bulk.
This isn't possible in on the themes page while both of these things would be kind of handy. Especially for dev sites.

- Keywords has-screenshots added
The two screenshots are suggestions how to toggle between list/grid view for themes.
The list view could be more similar to WP_MS_Themes_List_Table
that extends WP_List_Table
than WP_Themes_List_Table
.
The list view table would contain the ways to bulk edit the themes in a typical WordPress admin table way.

That concept looks amazing. I think it would be awesome if that UI also has places where plugins can hook in like: https://wordpress.org/plugins/force-update-translations/
Since now, the plugin adds an additional button in the menu for only updating the theme strings.

Thanks @NekoJonez
If the list table approach is the way to go here, then the action links would most probably be filterable, via hook similar to theme_action_links
see. e.g https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/theme_action_links/
Yes agree, a new theme list table is what's missing to be able to delete/autoupdate themes in bulk.
I imagine similar buttons, just like on the Media admin page:
where one can switch between the current theme view and the theme list table.
