Hashing or moving multiple torrents

Hello,

When I select multiple torrents and choose the force recheck option or move the download directory, Deluge starts executing these for all selected torrents at the same time instead of doing it sequentially. The result is a very high strain on the hard disk and the process takes much longer since Deluge is switching between torrents all the time.

Is there any way to prevent this? I neither like having to execute the command for a larger number of torrents, nor having to move them manually and changing the directory later.

Selecting all that are in the 'Checking' state, pausing them, and resuming them right away (while keeping the selection intact) would yield your desired behavior. The torrent on the top of that queue would return to 'Checking', others get queued up and get processed one at a time.

I need the reverse of this. I have 3 different file systems/devices attached and I want to be able to run 3 force rechecks simultaneously. Does anyone know the trick? I checked the source code but could not figure out the queuing mechanism...
