Bulk user name delete

I would like to select and delete a subset of user names and passwords in Firefox. I have a group of about 80 logins for an old account which I no longer use. I know I can delete individual logins one at a time but doing this 80 times is a pain!

I can search for the particular account in the password list and Firefox lists them all, which is great. What I would like to do then is right click and select all followed by delete.

Is there a shortcut somewhere?

Thanks for the prompt response. At least there are now two of us who would find it useful but I guess the developers wouldn't see that as a burning issue!

There is currently no way to remove multi-selected login. There is an old bug that hasn't gotten activity for wuite a few years.

Thanks for that, unfortunately I couldn't find a 'vote' link. Could that be because I need a GitHub login name?
