Are you using this to update the task priority or status? Using
functions like planner-task-done (C-c C-x) and
planner-raise-task-priority (C-M-p) might be much easier to use, and
they'll update linked tasks as well.

For quick fixes, you can use a keyboard macro. =) If you do this
fairly often, it might be a good idea to write a
david/planner-update-region function. You can model it on
sacha/planner-replan-region in
http://sacha.free.net.ph/notebook/emacs/planner-config.el , sans the
PAGE argument.
