Kicking the tires on the new Cockpit v2. (Good looking and loving the API playground!) 🙂

Scenario: I’m replacing a v1 “gallery” field with a v2 “asset” field that allows multiple entries. Adding entries into this field requires selecting assets one at a time. This gets quite painful, especially when assets are sorted into folders.

Is there a way to select multiple assets on the “Select Asset” modal? Any suggestions are welcomed that would avoid a ton of clicks/taps adding assets for those image-heavy projects. Thanks!
