Description
There are many occasions when it is necessary to load back into Mantid workspaces previously reduced data files.
At present this is very tedious because you can only load one file at a time by: selecting a Load algorithm, executing it, browsing to the file, setting a workspace name, clicking Run, and then repeating the process for the next file.
Ideally, for common types of reduced data file of the same extension (.dat/.txt, .csv, .xml), one would be able to Ctrl-click/Shift-click select on several files at the same time and have Mantid load them all into workspaces using the file name for the workspace name.
Is this possible?
This does not meet the threshold for entry into the patch release.
