SUMMARY
It would be great to have an option to edit multiple comments at once, as it is possible in Adobe Acrobat Reader.

BACKGROUND
Sometimes there is the need to have a different author name for the annotations in a PDF file (e.g. for an anonymous peer review document) . If you plan ahead, Okular already has you covered, as you can easily change the author name in the "Configure Okular" dialog. However, it happens that one does not plan ahead and has already created numerous comments, that then need to be modified. Currently this is only possible to do for each annotation individually, which can result in a lot of work depending on the amount of annotations. Adobe Acrobat Reader has implemented the option to edit multiple comments at once in the desktop application (which is what I ended up using as a workaround).

As it is already possible to delete multiple annotations at once, I assume it should not be too difficult to implement this feature. Okular is already the most feature-rich PDF viewer in the Linux realm and this feature would remove another of the very few reasons to use the Adobe counterpart instead.



OBSERVED RESULT
When selecting and right-clicking multiple comments in the left "Sidebar" under the "Annotations" tab, the only option that appears is to delete multiple comments.

EXPECTED RESULT
When selecting and right-clicking multiple comments in the left "Sidebar" under the "Annotations" tab, there is an additional option "Properties" (just as when selecting only one comment).
