Import more images at once
Currently, in Blender 2.8 you can't pick more than one image and import it to the shader editor. And I think it would be really useful especially if you are working with a large number of textures. What do you think?

With the node wrangler addon enabled you can import multiple images
* @Quinten.Pillen * What is the shortcut?
Granted, it's not in the shader editor, but you can import as many images as you want in the UV/Image editor, and just cycle through them in your image texture input node. Drag and drop into the shader editor only works with one at a time sadly.
But I see what you mean, I guess you'd want a texture node to be created for all of them in one go. That could be handy, maybe we get some improvements on that end as well with UDIMs and such. I really wish blender had a more flexible drag and drop functionality, not just for images, but all kinds of things, obj's, alembics, etc.
* @3dddan * I think a lot of development is needed too. and in compositing part too. and node wrangler is adding cool features but to many useless shortcuts. and I changed shortcuts by default because in 2.8 for me this is not good. but now this is quite impossible to have coherent shortcuts. to messy. e.g ctrl+space was a bad choice...not coherent with node wrangler and with other aeras such text editor...I still do ctrl up. left clic on nothing is not deselecting because now I can move nodes as object in 3Dview...(G is so old shool and they pretend to do more modern...) and right clic is doing A (toggle on) and right clic drag border select...and I have this everywhere...so fast
