 * The situation I’m in is that I want to swap some tags over to the post type, 
   of course that can’t be done so I was wondering if it’s possible to mass edit
   or add connections?
 * Thanks

 * So, in other words, to convert term objects into post objects? That might be 
   an interesting utility for Posts 2 Posts.
 * As for bulk connection management, it has been proposed before, but it’s difficult
   to come up with a good UI for it.

 * The ability to swap a taxonomy to a post would be awesome but I am not too sure
   many people would require it.
 * But on bulk management – I take it that it can be done, the problem is it doesn’t
   look good?

 * The problem is this: say you select the first set of posts using the checkbox
   column. But then, how do you select the post which you want those to be connected
   to?

 * Can’t you put a box in the quick edit panel, like for custom taxonomies?

   I’m a WordPress developing noob)

 * It should be possible, but you would need to add a box for each connection type,
   which could get ugly. A worthy suggestion, nevertheless:

 * The quick edit panel is already ugly, IMO. This is the existing interface for
   bulk editing post properties, and I don’t think it’d be a good idea to make people
   go somewhere else to bulk edit the post connections. +1 vote for using the quick
   edit interface!
