Bulk multiple delete
Especially during testing, when you create masses of bogus, invalid records, would it be nice to have a better interface for batch deletion. Having selected multiple records I should be able to delete them in one go, which is not the case currently. There are multiple way to solve it UI-wise - won't dig into details.
Also, sometimes the whole collection becomes worthless, in which case a button "Clear collection" would be a handy tool.
I understand the safety concerns for collections which are in production. Maybe we could flag project/collection as development/production - in which case some features would be guarded less/more respectively.

Hi - This is a great idea. Thanks for the feedback. We are considering adding such features to the Collections View in the near future.

Ditto. I need multiple document edit operations across the board.

I continuously find myself in same situation that I need to remove all returned documents ( from a query ); and due to the missing functionality in Compass and Online I need to go to my code and execute the delete from my Application, quite inconvenient; If I continue to use Atlas and MongoDB more intensively, and this "bulk delete" function will not be available, I'll have to create a full UI in my WebApp to do it ( right now I just use a hardcode script )
