select multiple widgets then delete none

Build Identifier: 20111027

There is the same issue in RBD.
Select more than one widgets in outline view, then click Delete in popup menu. Only one of user's select widgets could be deleted in fact. If outline view could not support deleting multiple widgets at one time, the multiple selection should be prevented at here.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.DD some widgets into handler.
2.Select 2 or 3 of the widgets in outline view at a time, then right click to delete them.

Actual results: Only one of user's select widgets could be deleted in fact.

For now, why don't we just prevent users from selecting more than 1 item in the Outline.
Comment 3 Brian Svihovec CLA 2011-12-16 11:19:56 EST 
What other features are supported when multiple widgets are selected?  (i.e. can I drag and drop 3 widgets from one box into another at the same time?)

If disabling multiple select would break this type of feature, we should instead figure out how to support deleting multiple widgets at one time.  If supporting the deletion of multiple widgets at one time will take a lot of work to implement, we should discuss deferring this issue.

We could not DD multiple widgets from one box into another at the same time.

This is no chance to fix it in 0.8, will target to fix it in 0.8.1
