Shipping Per Item

I just had one of my newer clients email me today asking about charging shipping per item. Not only did I realize there is a minor bug (will be fixed in next update), but it gave me an idea. When you select this method of shipping it just tells you the method was set and nothing else. You are supposed to go to each item and specify the shipping price under the settings tab when editing the item (which I told them to do, of course). However, this made me realize that I could improve on this feature.

This client has a small catalog so it's not big deal for them, but what if someone had a large catalog? Would they really want to click on each item and update one at a time? What if shipping prices go up and they need to change all their item shipping prices? That would be one heck of a task!

Well I have an idea of how I can make it better! So in an upcoming update I'm going to add the ability to change shipping prices on multiple items at once as well as adjust shipping for multiple items at once (similar to the new price adjustments feature I built in). Look for it either in the next update or the one right after.
