Bug Description
In horizon, we cannot delete a container if it is not empty(this is only allowed using CLI).
And if a user wants to delete a container, he needs to empty the container first (i.e. delete all of its objects).
This is OK if the no of objects is limited (we can manually select them), what if the no of objects is say 500. It is really pain for an user to select those 500 objects and delete them.
Instead there should be select all button as we have in Compute --> Instances, Volumes, Images (to delete all items). This will help to select all of the objects together and delete it in one go and ease the hassle of selecting all objects to delete them.

This is a duplicate of bug 1231530. Feel free to comment on the other bug with your thoughts. I think the concerns are for performance issues, as far as I can tell there is no "bulk delete" operation in Swift. So if you select 500 objects and try to delete them all Horizon will have to send 500 requests to the Swift server.
