And there it succeeds. Most people have probably never lived through a situation that required them to forward multiple emails. But lets say that occasionally everyone needs to. It is still OK for this feature to be missing. For one, you can forward them individually, so it is still possible to complete the task. And for two, if GMail added every micro feature that power users demanded, GMail would have been almost certainly an unusable mess that never would have seen such heavy adoption.
