Bulk date/time reassignment

[IcedQuinn]

It would be neat if the start/due dates could be edited in bulk like most properties.

I regularly have lists of >100 entries and basically just do not use dates for that reason.

Hi @IcedQuinn , thanks for sharing your idea. I am hesitant doing something like that. The problem is how would you set the date?
Would you select 100 entries and select a new start or due date that should be set for all of them? Or would you rather add a certain number of days to the existing start or due date? But what would happen if there's no date set then? What if you update the start date and there are entries where the start date is AFTER the due date (which is not allowed according to the standard)? The same goes for the due date that cannot be before the start date. For sure a logic can be implemented to also update the conflicting date, but that would end up confusing for the user. Or a message would need to be added.

I think that's too much complexity for a functionality that it not the most common thing to do.
