Friend All Button or Reading List / Grant Access Button

Title:
Friend All Button or Reading List / Grant Access Button

Area:
admin console or possibly entries

Summary:
Basically, some journal communities like insanejournal enable you to create a form in a livejournal entry that access the admin console to add a group of friends with a click of a single button.

Description:
I don't know if this is possible to implement as I don't know what goes into it, but certain journal communities that were based on livejournal code (specifically insanejournal but previously also greatestjournal), you were able to create a submission form that basically accessed the admin console and let a user add everyone listed by the form to their friends list. This would be slightly different in function as dreamwidth uses both an access and subscribe option but overall I think the theory is the same.

The best I can point to is this for reference:

But it's very helpful in RPs to be able to provide members with one easy click method to add all the other members of the community to their reading/access list.
