I haven't been the best about reading every message to come through on
this list, so if this has been mentioned before, please forgive me.

I have a request/suggestion. I assume that DW will offer the same mass
security change feature that LJ does, where you can change a whole
batch of entries from, say, public to friends only. Now, it's been a
while since I had a paid account, but IIRC, on LJ you can filter your
change by dates and that's about it. So I was wondering if it would be
possible to filter it by tag. The interface I have in mind would list
all of your tags with check boxes next to them with handy select all
and select none buttons to make things easier.

So, if you start planning Nanna and PopPop's surprise 50th anniversary
party only to remember that Nanna knows her way around a Mac pretty
well these days and likes to spend her afternoons searching the
internet for juicy tidbits about family, you can go in to your mass
security change page, hit "select none" and then check off only the
tag that says "50th anniversary".

OTOH, if your boss somehow gets a hold of your lj address and you're
pretty sure you never made a specific tag for all those times you
called him a slimy toad, you can hit select all. But if you have one
tag just for photography and you're pretty sure that even he can't
find anything objectionable about your black and white photos of 18th
century Quaker meeting houses, you can uncheck just the photography
tag to leave that public.

There should also probably be a check box for all untagged entries so
people can choose what to do with them, if they have any.

Again, apologies if this has been discussed before, or if LJ already
offers something similar (like I said, it's been a while since I had a
paid account so I don't remember exactly how the interface works). I
finally had a relevant idea and I wanted to share it with the list. ;)
