> It is desirable to be able to bulk update connection settings. Specifically, the settings for FlowFile Expiration, Back Pressure Object Threshold and Size Threshold. These settings may have been set initially by inheriting the default values specified at the process group level. After initial build-out of a flow, it may be determined the default settings need to be updated. This requires going to dozens or perhaps hundreds of connections individually to update.
> A new option to bulk update all connections would make the process easier, less time-consuming and less error-prone. This feature would be similar in convenience to the bulk operation of "Empty All Queues". 
> Since it is being applied in bulk, a warning/confirmation pop-up should be displayed - again, similar to the "Empty All Queues" option.
> For each of the above mentioned Process Group settings (expiration and backpressure object/size), two checkboxes should be presented: one for "Apply to all existing Connections" and one for "Apply to child Process Groups". 
> Apply to all existing Connections: This option would update all existing connections in the current and all child process groups.
> Apply to child Process Groups: This option will update the default settings of the current and all child process groups without modifying any existing connections.
