Not sure if this is the right
Add menu options when right clicking windows in the overview effect. 
For *example*:
* "Move to <desktop name>" where <desktop name> is the name of the desktop to the left or right of the desktop the window is currently in.
* "Move to activity: <activity name>"

And add ability to ctrl+click to select more than one, and just other selection things you would expect like shift+left click and drag to get the square selection box thing

I mean for selecting more than one window and using right click menu options to run on all of them (if a right click menu option is used)

You can already drag windows to desktops. I think that's not only good enough, but maybe even better than right-clicking.

Moving windows to other Activities could be in-scope; let's use this bug report to track that.

Please file another bug report requesting the ability to select multiple windows at once.

Being able to drag windows to other activities from overview would be a nice addition as there are no easy ways to do it currently.
