Multi select prims when editing linked prims

Simple question but once a group of prims has been linked, if I then want to move a group, the only way I can see to do this is to edit linked and then shift and click each part. This is painstaking when working with fine parts.

Surely there's a way of drawing a box around a number of prims and moving them in linked edit mode?

yeah, you can multi select using the draw a box method with edit linked parts checked, but i've noticed it's not always reliable. i'll draw a box around a single prim with edir linked checked, it won't pick it up, but if i draw the box around the same prim with edit linked uncheck, it of course selects the whole object. but other times, with edit linked parts i'll draw the box and it picks up random links (even outside the box). using shift&click, you can unselect/reselect just as if they weren't linked (with edit linked checked)
