This is a request to be able to flag a group of movies and then re-assign them to a block of numbers of your choosing.

For example, I would flag 100 different movies and then under the "Collection" tab using the "Reassign Collection Numbers" would now feature a box that you could use to show which starting number you would like them to be assigned to/or start at (ie. 4000) etc. 

In addition, in the "Tools" tab using the "options" you could opt by checking a box that when you are adding a movie it would prompt you for the start number of the first available slot to assign a Collection number too.

My reasoning for this came as a need for having all my films on "one" database but be able to set different numbering groups for movies stored in differnet locations (ie. Family Room, Bedroom, Childrens room, vacation cabin etc.  In this way you would always see all movies in searching by Title but know which area they are located. Just being able to move to a certain group of numbers must have some other benefits as well for your storage scheme.

Please respond as to your feelings as I am curious if this could be helpful for others as well.

I made the plugin BulkEdit to satisfy this kind of requirement: when the main program doesn't allow it, or when it might be convenient to change a lot of things at once, such as a list of collection numbers.
