With multi-file selection implemented, this is definitely becoming a hotter
feature request. Here's how I'd suggest implementing this:

For the first file in a batch of >1, show an expandable "copy this information
to all the files below". When expanded, it shows four default-checked
checkboxes:

[X] copy title (will use auto-numbering)
[X] copy descriptions and categories
[X] copy location data
[X] copy other information

[Copy]

The logic here is that we should allow the user to selectively copy content
which can legitimately vary (locations in a batch could easily vary, but if
descriptions are identical then categories probably are, too). 

The [Copy] action would be pretty straightforward, except for the
auto-numbering bit. Here I'd suggest checking for the rightmost digit in the
title and incrementing that if it exists, or adding a 001 format digit to the
title if there isn't one, and incrementing from there.

Thoughts?
