Unable to build multiple targets

[fekir]

Brief Issue Summary

I often want to build multiple targets, but it does not seem possible to select more than one.

Selecting all might take too much time, so the alternative is to build first one target, then the second one, ... which is not ideal for two reason.

The first is that the developer has to wait until one build job finishes, and then start the next one.
The second one, is that on a sufficiently powerful machine, two or more targets can be build in parallel, while triggering them one by one this nevers happens.

One could create dummy targets that build exactly the targets one is interested in, but it is not a very practical solution.

Hi @fekir thank you for bringing us this feature suggestion! This seems like a reasonable idea so we'll add it to our backlog and work on it when we have the capacity.
