As a simple usability improvement, it would be simetimes useful to support deploying to a selection of devices. We do today support 1) Deploying to a group and 2) Deploying to a single device. It is of course possible to do this by first creating a (static) group then deploying to it, hence this is "only" a usability enhancements for these (rarer) cases.
I think we have all the required APIs in place for this and are doing it for a single device, if this is not the case we can reconsider (should not spend a lot of effort on this).
Acceptance criteria
When selecting several devices, it is possible to choose "Create deployment"
When doing this, the Create deployment dialog is brought up, just like when doing this flow for a single device
Ensure following the "View devices" link filters only these selected devices (see screenshot)
Yes, it's possible without too much effort, but the "view devices" link would have to be replaced by a list of device ids or names I think, since OS users won't have the full filtering available... besides this it's mostly some changes in the deployment creation flow that drive the estimate a bit over the 3...

@Michael Clelland@Manuel Zedel what do you think about this flow? Does it make sense?
If so and it's a simple UI change, could you also please estimate?
