Open, LowPublicFeature

Description

Author: dannychia

Description:
When viewing contributions and the like, users can select to view all namespaces or just one (via the drop-down menu). It would be nice if there was an option to select multiple namespaces via checkboxes instead of just one.

Version: 1.25-git
Severity: enhancement

There's been no movement on this since I subscribed to one of the merged bugs nine years ago. Any chance of some priority being given to it? Especially since the namespace selector on search has had this capability for a very long time.

This addition would be much appreciated by everyone involved with abuse prevention.

Unlikely unless someone volunteers to step up working on this (as with any other issues too)...
