no, not until a few days ago ;)
i cant recall from the dev-list if anyone else is working on the same  
tool currently??

its been an often requested and discussed tool though...
and yes, shelving-location too!

the main use for the update-tool would be for Circulation - to allow  
staff to bulk-update some boxes of items.

  - setting all items to STACK or MENDING, or
  - setting shelving location from '1st floor' to '3rd floor', etc

with the same information/warnings that returning an item gives  
(items is lost, reserved etc)
