"Duplicate" remote file to multiple sessions -- Distribute

I find that I need to transfer a file from our development system to our test, train, and production systems fairly often. Currently, I go to the session connected to the dev system, right-click on the file and select "Duplicate" (or hit Shift-F5), select the first system to copy it to, and then, when the transfer is complete, switch back to the dev system and do it all again for the next server.

It would be handy to have an option to duplicate a file to several systems at once, perhaps "Distribute" or "Multi-Duplicate" if you want a separate hotkey. Keystroke could be Shift-Ctrl-F5. That would pop-up something like this:



It would list the active sessions with suggested targets, much as the duplicate command does now. It would default to the local copy thing (because that's what makes sense).

Anyway, just an idea.

Thanks,

Roger
