Run a workflow on multiple items
A customer had inquired into the ability to run a workflow on several items.
This is available OOTB from Sharepoint, but I came accross the following guide that describes how to do this.
It would be convenient to implement this as a context menu option, to run against several list/library items.

This would be very useful, indeed! I find myself often having to create a site workflow that will pick up a certain piece of metadata in an individual column to pick them up. Usually "WFTrigger" and then I set it to "Yes" on all the items I want to run it on. Many times these need to be started on items that really have nothing unique as far as the data goes - and in those times, this is the only way around it. The way Sumit has suggested would be very handy.
