We need a "Reserve All" button in TW2

There is a Release All button in TW2, there should be a "Reserve All" button as well. Similar to the old Exclusive Access.

While I understand that TW2 and the reserve on demand capability has eliminated the many problems associated with Teamwork including Exclusive Access and the loss time associated with having to have Team Members sign in and out to do those project management functions that required exclusivity, you now have a similar loss time problem but in reverse. If I know I am going to be the only one working on a project today, or for this week, or tonight after hours when everyone else on the project goes home, there should be a quick and easy way to Reserve All. While I realize there are several ways to select multiple elements through the Navigator, etc. if I need to get everything I end up wasting a lot of time when a simple Reserve All button would do the trick.

As noted by others in this thread:

reservation via Navigator only gets so much ... you still have to manually reserve all attributes (including layers/combos), favorites, model view options and more. Too many steps.

Kevin said it all.
Add "Reserve All" button pretty please.
And if it works within the current system where you can release individual elements/project data as you go even better!!

looks like in AC14 your wish comes true. Single user mode is here for TW2.
one click and you get the entire database
