Do you mean a multi-selection when browsing by tag?

I've briefly played with the idea at some point, but it wasn't a high priority 
back then. I guess I wasn't sure whether hard-coding the multi-selection as 
AND or OR combination would be self-explaining, or something along those 
lines.
Revisiting this decision, I would now think that hard-coding an OR combination 
as you suggested would be a natural fit. I think this shouldn't be too hard to 
implement...

The second part "selecting everything at once" would probably need some 
consideration, but I think that should not be rocket-science either.

Cheers,
  Johannes
