Feature request: Select and apply Related, Tags, etc. to multiple items

Would be great to be able to select multiple items and apply tags or choose related items.

Apologies in advance if this is actually possible and I just can't figure it out.

For tagging: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/268599/#Comment_268599

For Related Items, you can relate multiple items to each others from the right-click menu in the Zotero 8 - beta.

To relate multiple items to a single target item, you can do it from the target item: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/416444/#Comment_416444

Zutilo does both those things to some extent - tags you first copy to the clipboard from one item, and then you paste them to multiple selected items at once; it does multiple relations by relating all the selected items to every other selected item (it can't relate a single item to multiple items AFAIK, but Zotero has done that for a long time).
