Upgrade Storage[Feature] Batch editing metadata for multiple items
Couldn't find any forum posts about this in the search (or is the search tool not working well?), so I would like to ask for the possibility of editing multiple items at once.
When we select more than one item in the library, the right pane only shows the number of selected items. Why couldn't it allow us to bulk-edit the metadata? This would come really handy at a lot of scenarios, like applying non-colored tags, correcting author's name etc.
If there is already a way of doing this, I would appreciate to know.

I've got a library of thousands of items and I'd love to adjust stuff like author names, journal abbreviations, etc., in bulk. Going through one by one is too tiresome.
