possible? order status list to checkboxes, not dropdown

[sbbemn]

Namely in Batch Status Update I would like to choose 4 statuses at once to update those four to one status, but with a dropdown, there is only one selection at a time quadrupling processing time.

Goal: Turn the Order Status Dropdown menu into a list of checkboxes allowing multiple order status selections.

possible?

<td class="smallText"><?php echo zen_draw_pull_down_menu('status', array_merge(array(array('id' => '', 'text' => TEXT_ALL_ORDERS)), $orders_statuses), $_GET['status'], ''); ?></td>
