For multiselect custom fields, what would be the desired behaviour when clicking on a value in the contextual menu?
  • replace existing value(s) with the new one
  • add the new one to the existing value(s)

Would a context menu displaying all values with checkboxes be too much? :p

And a submit button I guess. Then yes :-)

Too bad, nobody had done it before.

Well, your question isn't that easy to answer, I feel like there is no right answer.

Comitted in r8824.

Multiselect custom fields are not proposed since the context menu allows to select a single value only. The bulk edit form is just 1 click away for those fields.
