reinforce 'all'

Concise description:
    Would it be a good idea to add the option 'reinforce all' at reinforcements?
    Most of the time when I am reinforcing, I want to move all armies from one country to some other country. The amount of armies to reinforce is default on '1' and it ranges to the maximum number of armies one can reinforce from any(!) country. When you want to clean up the scattered armies you have to look carefully every time to see how many you need to choose. This can be made much easier by introducing the option 'reinforce all'.
    Example: Country A has 12 armies and country B has 30 (biggest group of armies you have). When you want to reinforce armies from country A, the amounts where you can choose from are ranged from '1' to '29' of which you want to choose '11'. Adding the amount 'all' will result in a reinforcement of 11 from country A but a reinforcement of 29 from country B.

Specifics:
    In the amount-list for the reinforcements, add the option 'all' (or max) to get the new list "all - 1 - 2 - 3 etc." This could be the default value, or let default stay on '1' for the people who are so much used to it. Maybe in personal settings add the possibility to set the default value for this amount.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
    it will make big reinforcement operations a lot easier.
    Normal gameplay will remain the same.

Could work, but a nice limit to mean you can only reinforce armies you have in that province (like attacks and fortifications are now limited to ones that are actually possible now) would be better.

Dosn't shift + right click do all of them?

I think simply having the max be the default for all pull down tabs would be the best way to go. After a long series of combats (with the maximum value preselected) I often find myself only reinforcing for 1 in my post victory dance.
