[Dextrose] Interesting side effect of journal multi-select

[Ajay Garg]

Well.. I wouldn't really term it a "side-effect", since copying a single
bundle from a USB drive to the Journal, installs the bundle.
Copying multiple bundles in one go (via multi-select), simply installs them
all in one go :-)

Regards,
Ajay
