Ability to attach sources to multiple people from source box

JEB said: I frequently find sources with multiple people listed. For example census. These are often people not yet in my tree so the "new" tool which will allow us to attach a source found in Family Search to multiple individuals will not help.

I end up putting the source in my Source Box. Later I edit the Source into a Template that can be used for every individual listed. I then add it to each individual from the Source Box. However, I can't add a source from the Source Box to multiple individuals at one time - I have to keep going back and forth!

So, could we have the ability to attach a Source in our Source box to multiple people at the same time.

Thanks
