Description
In general, interfaces to update data for multiple contacts at once, especially tags and groups, would be appreciated. While searching, then assigning then choosing a tag/group/organization works, if you are trying to enter a few hundred or more records with a few dozen tags/groups this is not feasible. Instead, a grid interface with chckboxes (for tags) or select boxes (for relationships) would be a more efficient interface. I made two very simple mockups, one for tags:

and one fore relationships:

To novice users these interfaces may be a bit overwhelming, but to more experienced users I think they will be very powerful, especially when combined with searching, so the only contacts displayed are those which meet certain criteria, and these can then be modified.
