I don't have Lightroom in front of me to test it out, but doesn't selecting a bunch of photos and using the white balance eyedropper set all of the photos to the same temperature and tint (versus the same _change_ to temperature and tint), which means that it will cause no headaches if AWB was used and each photo has a slightly different starting white balance?
