<p>I would like to know if it's possible to select multiple entries and update a field for them all at once – for example, give all the selected entries the same category.</p>

Are you asking if you can batch assign a custom field value to multiple entries at one time?

I'd like to be able to do this (a la Wordpress) [eg what Brad said above] — really handy for re-ccategorising entries.

I would like to know if it's possible to select multiple entries and update a field for them all at once – for example, give all the selected entries the same category.

The closest thing I've come across is the ***NP Edit Multiple Elements*** plugin which allows you to edit multiple entries *sequentially* meaning that when you hit save it automatically advances to the next entry – faster than the default, but not exactly a bulk edit tool.
