How to bulk edit documents via firestore console

I'm wondering if there is a way to bulk update documents in firestore via the Firestore console. I'm aware that I am able to do this via code, as shown in answers such as this one and this one, but I'm mainly looking for a way to do this via the Firestore console/UI.

At the moment, I am able to update one document at a time, but is there a way for me to update all documnts (matching a filter for example) at the same time to have the same update?:

enter image description here

I find that I often want to do this when I'm prototyping, and having to write code just to do a bulk update adds additional time to something I would think would be simple to do via the UI. I'm currently on the free spark plan, so I also can't use cloud-functions, meaning I have to spin up a server to do the bulk update via the admin SDK. Is there a way to bulk update documents via the firestore console or some other UI?

Currently Cloud firestore supports editing single documents via console. but not in bulk. The only way to edit documents in bulk is either using Batch writes or Transactions. If it is necessary for you to use console, you can raise feature request here
