I would even say generally, if files are batch-uploaded (in relation to WLX
or not), the best course of action would be not to let the user go one by
one through files to fill in P150 and/or other fields but to giva a choice
between filling them all for the whole batch (if they all depict the same
thing) and filling them individually.

Cheers
