There was an issue with the Attribute Validate Parameter binding component and the bulk update process.

API Extensions
ISSUE-360656 - API Extension now allows custom Toolbar actions to be displayed on Node Lists
An Extenstion API has been extended with a new method that will allow custom Toolbar actions to be shown only if a user has selected a node on a Node List.
com.stibo.portal.widget.action.toolbar.ToolbarActionButton now has 2 new methods:
- requiresNodeSelection() - Returns true, if a node selection is required to display this action.
- setRequiresNodeSelection() - Determines whether Node List selection is needed to display this action. When set to true, this action will not be displayed if the user did not select a node on a Node List. Notice that Node List checkboxes will only be displayed if at least one ToolbarActionButton, for which requiresNodeSelection is true, is configured (or any other core actions are added in Design Mode). Default value is false (selection is not needed).
