I'd like to see some integration of the Grant tab functionality with the Content module's listing. I have a large number of nodes (actually pictures imported by acidfree) that I must restrict to a particular role. If I could select these in the Content listing and then nodeaccess them all at once it would be a huge timesaver!

Any thoughts?

I'm on Drupal 5.2.

The content listing is part of Drupal core, and not of the Content module - that is the core of the CCK project. But it is an excellent thought, and I'm happy to say it will be in the upcoming 2.0 release. It will have a search/mass grant function, where you can search for nodes based on type and access settings, and change their access permissions all at once.

Meanwhile, if the nodes you want to change are of a single type, you could of course change the default permissions for them - but that would only affect the nodes that have not had their grants edited per-node.
