[Problem] Applying an expression parameter to multiple selected objects only applies it to a single object

[Anthony-Gaudino]

Is there an existing issue for this?

Problem description

If I create two objects, for example two Part cubes and select both in the Model panel, and then change the Length property, it changes the property of both cubes.

If I do the same, but instead of changing the value directly I enter an expression, then it only applies the expression to one of the cubes.

I expect the expression to be applied to all selected cubes.
