How to add a user attribute to entire folder of documents?

I imported a folder full of PDF files. I also created a user attribute that I want to add to all of the individual info items (in this case, the PDF files). I can add them one by one ...

you can select as many as you want (or have a search at the end of your overall import process to find all pdf files), and add your attribute to all of them at once. The same could be done with template. I don't think there is a way to assign a template automatically based on document type, it would be nice though.
