Describe the feature/enhancement
It would be helpful to be able to select multiple episodes in the podcast episode list by either having an option to select all the episodes, or to select multiple with the shift+click input (select all episodes between the last clicked episode and the one that was shift+clicked on).
In my specific case I recently had an issue where the app did not recognize any of the podcasts and I deleted and recreated them, thus losing track of the episodes. It detected the files, but did not associate them with the proper episodes and would re-download the files again. I expect it was caused either by me moving the files on to another partition, but that shouldn't be the case because I use docker volumes, and the mount point and permissions didn't change, or by the naming convention changing between versions (I think I remember that happening at one point).
In any case, the simplest solution for this is to select all the episodes detected, delete them, and re-download them. However, that's problematic as some podcasts have hundreds, even over a thousand episodes. Clicking each episode is impractical in such a case. I was considering writing a puppeteer script, but this functionality would be helpful in many other cases if it were added to the app itself.
