Scenario: I have an overall location, which has a map. It has 8 rooms. I create an Adventure Area, load the map in, and then go create the 8 Locations from the map.
Problem: How do I get the 8 Locations to set under the Adventure Area?
Solution #1: There's a handy sidebar that says "Governed Content". But there's no + icon on it. Failure
Solution #2: Drag and Drop (http://forums.wolflair.com/showthread.php?t=48888), but nothing moves. Failure
Solution #3: Look for some form of batch editing (http://forums.wolflair.com/showthread.php?t=49326&highlight=container), but there is nothing. Failure
Solution #4: Go to each individual Location, hit the + next to Containing topic, and add it to the Adventure Area. This involves a click on the left side of the screen, hitting enter (to save), a click on the right side of the screen, and hitting enter (to select the area, which is highlighted by default). Repeat. Tedious Success
While I'd love to see drag and drop, or a fuller form of batch edit, all that this really needs to be able to batch-add items to a container is a + on Governed Content. Even if it only is one item at a time, this would still be useful, because you could click and hit enter, click and hit enter, and then save it all at once at the end. If you're able to select multiple items in the same dialog, it would be even better.
