[Annotation View] Provide control to apply value to multiple rows
- Entering large sets of similar data into the annotation view is cumbersome (e.g., WCETs in the deployment-specific parameter table, implemented as annotations to the Deployment root element).
- There should be a way to copy an existing annotation value to a selected row in the table.
- One possible implement is to let the user select in a single column (= annotation) a range of rows (= representing model elements) and copy the value of the first to to all other rows.
- Bonus: Allow to select multiple columns, which would allow to copy more than one annotation to the selected range of model elements
- Bonus (2): Provide a way to copy a annotation value value to all model elements (e.g., if the action is trigged when only a single cell or a horizontal range is selected)
