I like the ideas proposed in comments on bug 35068 so wanted to record them

I dont think that we should block this now. But personally the buttons and checkboxes are a bit confusing. If I click one renew checkbox, I would expect Renew all to be disabled for instance.
Renew all is now a shortcut for Select all+Renew selected. Could we do without it? We dont have Checkin all which is just Select all+Checkin selected. Feels like an inconsistency?

What about (just brainstorming, sorry): Checkin = Checkin All when no checkbox is enabled. Same for Renew. As soon as you select a checkbox, the button becomes an action for selected lines.

Lucas and I also discussed modalising some of the workflow moving the desperate options that appear on the page to modals that appear after action click as as confirmations and additional options dialogue.
