Jan,

In the nightlies you can use a schematic rule area with an attached
directive label to assign a netclass to any net contained within the rule
area - that's less clutter than the many directive labels method you're
showing. They are describe with an example at the end of the netclasses
section in the nightly docs:

https://docs.kicad.org/master/en/eeschema/eeschema.html#schematic-netclasses

On the assign netclass functionality - it shouldn't be too tricky to extend
this to apply to all selected tracks; I'll take a look.

James.
