TYPO3 Core

Situation:
List-view, only one specific record-type selected.
In front of the column-title there is already an edit-icon to mass-edit all records. That however loads a list of all records with the possibility to change each one separately.

Proposal:
Have an easy way to set one new value for all of them.
One way to do it would be to simply use JavaScript on the client and a new icon near the new value for the first record like "copy to all other records". This would then also allow to choose a new value there, copy that to all other records but before saving still modify individual rows again.
Please note that this JavaScript-solution would need to take into account the field-type (select, text, ...).
