I raised a bugzilla on this,

Constraints are not obvious to new or even old users !.

I'm looking at that as part of my setting resource patch. I really
want to be able to roll-up all obviously changable items for a set
of tasks (1 or many). Thus if you select multiple tasks than ideally
you should be able to do a right-mouse Edit Parameters or Action->Edit 
Task Parameters and it would provide a single dialog and use the
"inconsistent" settings for any value thats not the same across
the selected tasks. Any value that is then set is then set
for all those selected tasks.

Thats the logic anyway.
