I've been away from the site for a bit due to various offline responsibilities so am not certain that this isn't already implemented (lots of updates going on!) but wanted to chime in.

So, this came to mind when using the bulk import option. When adding a bunch of games I wanted to be able to set them all to "used" physical copies (for example). Having the import set them as physical is doable, but not the specific type. I know this might not make sense in all instances, but I would like the option regardless.

If not in the bulk import section, it may make better sense to have a mass edit feature on the collection page. Some way to select multiple games at once and then perform a specific action on them (basically whatever options are available on a per-game basis aside from like completion times).

I could see the bulk import option having some additional options, but I think the mass edit option is probably a higher priority since it could help anyone, including users that have already added their games.

I'm trying to decide if I want to incorporate this onto the existing Collection page or have a new, dedicated page for performing these edits. It wouldn't necessarily have to be a menu item (we're really running out of room haha), but rather another Action link. If we use the existing Collection page, I'd need to add a checkbox column, which would take up some valuable real estate. It will also be tricky to find a good place for the checkbox on the shelf view.

I'm all for adding the feature since I can see its value, so it's just matter of figuring out where to put it :)
