This has been discussed. First we tried hierarchical podcast settings but that 
didn't seem to work. So Seb and I decided to implement batch settings

either select a couple of podcast and change all there settings or change the 
settings of all podcasts in a folder.

One thing on my list is OPML import/export for podcasts both for backup and 
importing from other programs. If you think your up for it, your allowed to 
try, just send a patch to the mailing list
