Bug Description
I just realized only two objects at a time can be intersected with Inkscape. Here's what I was trying to do: First I created some letters with the pen tool. Then I wanted to add a reflection-gloss look to them by drawing a large object over half of the letters I made and then I was trying to intersect them all at once with that larger object but it kept deleting everything I had selected unless I only did two objects at a time. It would be useful if you could intersect multiple objects at once with one larger object, because I mainly do a lot of lettering design and I use the intersection feature a lot. Thanks.

You can combine the objects (letters) into one path (CTRL+K) then
perform the intersection and finally separate them if you want them
independent from each other (SHIFT+CTRL+K).
That's a work around rather than a solution. I don't know how
complicated (in terms of code but also in terms of expectations for
the output) multiple path boolean operations would be.
