I'd like to execute actions on all nodes displayed by a view, without having selected all of them. Please include an option for disabling checkboxes.

I'm using an action unflagging all the selected nodes in a view (with aggregate option :-), and I have an unflag link with each node (in case I want to unflag them individually), so having these checkboxes is unnecessary and confusing, cause I'd like to unflag them all by VBO.

Thanks for the great module!

Implementing this will require some hacking in the core of this module and will affect many parts, something I'd like to avoid. How about an option that says: "All nodes selected by default"?

Would be nice to have, too. I might try to hide the checkboxes by CSS (I'm not a CSS guru, but I guess it is possible. Other way, I can live with them...

A quick and dirty solution for having all the checkboxes checked is this javascript hack. This is not perfect, as one may turn it off in his browser, but better than nothing:

I put this into the header of my view (php code):

drupal_add_js("$(document).ready(function() {
  $('input[@type=checkbox]').attr('checked', 'true');
})", 'inline');

I'm not sure this option is worth implementing. The quick-and-dirty solution above it should be enough.
