Suggestion About the Lists?

About the list features, would it be possible to add your "On hold" and "Unifinished" on to the pull down button on a series information page? Or at the very least, a 'select all' and a 'select none' buttons in the Lists pages?

Btw, I was also wondering if series were able to appear on more than 1 list now?
-For the first part, I agree. It makes sense for all, not just some, of the lists to appear on the little menu where it says "Add to:" Plus, it seems like it would be easy to implement.
-For the second part, I sure wouldn't mind the feature, but I don't think people would use it all that often. I mean, I can certainly think of situations where it would be very useful (ex., you added like a hundred series to one of your lists, but you added them to the wrong one, so now you have to check all the little boxes to move them all; you haven't updated your lists in a while and you've read/begun to read the vast majority of stuff on your wish list and now you want to move them to the proper list; etc.) but those situations probably don't occur too often.
-For the third part, yeah, I can definitely see the advantages of being able to add things to more than one list, but it seems like implementing it would be really complicated. They'd have to fix things so that the lists don't conflict with each other. And there would need to be more than one icon in front of each series and stuff (plus, the custom lists don't have icons, so it'd be hard to recognize which lists something is on). This reminds me of the conflicting colors for genres: "Notice for coloring: Click on the 'color' button next to a genre to set a color for it. Note that this is beta, and I still haven't worked out the problems for when colors conflict with each other..." But the multiple list thing is probably even harder to implement than multiple colors, so... well, you get the idea.
