Now that there is Fast Create Topics I’d like to have “Fast Create Keydefs” 
that I can use to create multiple keydefs at once by filling in a tabular form.

For example, I create key definitions for each external Web site referenced 
from my docs, of which there can be many in some of my open-source project 
documentation.

It would be nice to have a dialog that provides a tabular input where the 
columns would be e.g.:

Key  | Target | Format

Or maybe 

Target | Key | Format 

Makes more sense (since for this task my focus is on associating target URLs 
with keys. Likewise, the format value can be inferred from the target URI.

I also create keys for each image or other media object, so it would be 
convenient to have a way to select multiple images or other media objects and 
do a “fast create keys” from all of them, e.g., use the filename as the base 
for the key and fill in the table so the user can then adjust the keys as 
needed.

In both cases a I usually use a prefix to distinguish one type of key from 
another, so it would be use useful to be able to specify a prefix or suffix to 
be used for all the keys being created, e.g., “image-“ for image keys, 
“website-“ for Web site keys, etc.

Cheers,

E.
