Library management nightmare: 99% of items selected with select all > delete do not actually get deleted

Ok, so, I found a huge pack of like 5,000 free art assets from some random place online, got lucky that my library page didn't crap out on me uploading all of them, and realized later that I really needed to rename/organize these better and be pickier with uploading  them. So.... I went about deleting all of them.  Only problem is, no matter how many times I pagedown all the way to the end of the list, it does NOT delete literally 99% of the items I selected. It's ridiculous.  I've spent 2 days running a macro script to pagedown repeatedly, select all, and delete. I'm finally down to the last 40mb or so. But this is pure insanity. 

I believe mass operations on library assets will only operate on 30 items at a time. Why there is then a select all option is outside of my purview. =)

The asset library is a known thorn in the side of the Roll20 team and one i've seen them mention before that they are very keen to address in a future update (ETA unknown at this time sorry).

So how do we move forward on this subject?  Is there a way for you to pass this along to the dev team to highlight that you need more concrete information to pass on to users to say "This is what's happening, this is when we expect more information to be available"?  An FTP interface with thumbnails would frankly be preferable to the current iteration at this point. I'd desperately like to hear anything official on the subject so I can set my expectations accordingly. The last update I saw on the subject was from 10 months ago that they planned to add folders to "everything" and they closed/locked the thread on the subject. 

I will certainly make sure that the development team are aware of your questions so that they can add some information sure :)

Art library management is something that's important to the Roll20 Dev team. It's something we consider a priority, however the API infrastructure has to come first, which will be the focus of our next update. I'm hoping the marketplace and art library management comes shortly after that.
