Please add a "Remove All" option to remove all User Defined Properties from a file

I'm in the process of cleaning up some bad mistakes my company made when they first implemented Vault. Part of this is changing categories which includes cleaning up a ton of User defined Properties for every file. The current category they assigned over 90 UDP's, many of which are blank and unused but that is besides the point. It is so tedious having to manually remove these properties one by one all in the name of cleaning up Vault. I would love an option to "Remove All" UDP's from a file in the Add/Remove Properties dialog. I have tens of thousands of files to have to go through and manually remove each UDP from the old category. It would be great if Vault also gave the admin an option to remove UDP's from a file if changing categories as well, but I would settle for just a Remove All feature or button in the Add/Remove Properties dialog box.

Sounds like a reasonable request. Even if you had the ability to select multiple entries by using 'Shift' or 'Ctrl' like a lot of other programs work would be great.

I'll even go as far to say as just give us the ability to paste in "Add" or "Remove" in any cell property, just like Excel or something. Having to manually add or remove a lot of properties is so time consuming. The drop down sometimes can be finicky too if you don't select in a sweet spot, even though you select "Remove", it may choose "Add" or visa versa. a dev really should spend some time on quality of life improvements like this, especially for us users who manage more of the administrative side of Vault and it's data.
