I see that the main products and orders record listing pages within the viart cms has a fairly quick system to allow users to delete multiple orders at once by ticking them in the far left column, and even deleteing all filtered orders at once if you so wish. Naturally, this basic quite standard, to be expected functionality is very useful for quickly deleting batches of records.
The issue is that most other pages in the viart system that list data records dont have such flexible commands available. On many pages you have to "Edit" a record and go into a 2nd property page in order to find a delete button. This is very time consuming sometimes, especially when configuring a newly installed shop and wanting to clear out selectively some of the data in it.
Also, in many areas of the shop, ive realised that a "duplicate" function would be very very useful. For example, in the CMS/Custom Pages or Custom blocks area.
In short, it would be fantastic if the same data handling commands and functions were accessible on all pages of the cms where records are displayed in a table/list format, and that specifically, batch deleting and duplication of records was possible without having to go into the property pages of an item.
Please add this to your list of wishes!
Thanks

I second this request.
Batch selection is required.

I find the manufacturers' table particularly irksome.
