Mass editing posts and pages

[kanuck54]

I'm already in love with 2.5. Even just the ability to delete multiple pages at once has saved me, oh, 180 clicks and page loads on the admin side today.

In that spirit, I've got 20 clicks and page loads now to change the Page Template on 10 pages. And it occurs to me that a Mass Edit button next to Delete would be wonderful.

Not to modify contents or attachments or anything; just simple things like author, status, whether comments are accepted, Page Template and such.

It wouldn't make sense for other things, like tags or dates or post contents; but this simple functionality would be a great fit with the new interface.
