The GeoServer REST API does not natively provide *any* batch operations.
Since the REST API is primarily intended for programmatic use, it is
expected that any user of it will have looping constructs available. For
example, if you wanted to add "special" as a keyword to each layer using the
Python REST API client[1] that I work on, you would write:
from geoserver.catalog import Catalog
> cat = Catalog("http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest";)
> for rs in cat.get_resources():
> rs.keywords = rs.keywords + ["special"]
> cat.save(rs)
