Description Frédéric Madiot CLA 2018-08-16 12:48:43 EDT 
When selecting several objects, the properties views should allow the user to set the updated values to ALL the selected objects :
- if the objects have the same type : display only the values which are the same to all the objects, otherwise display nothing (blank fields). When a value is entered set the new value to all the selected objects.
- if the objects are not of the same type : display only the properties common to all the selected objects + idem "same type"

Note that this was explicitly removed from the scope at the time when we added support for properties view as it was estimated to be too complex. I'm not saying it will never get done, but be aware that this is a complex change which would have deep impacts (it goes against a lot of assumptions in the current code and design).
