Add common keyword quickly across multiple images?

$

Is there a way to quickly add a common keyword across multiple selected images via simple text entry into the Metadata Panel or File Info dialogue - without loosing the existing multiple keywords?

 

I can use the keyword panel but this takes longer to add the keyword, and requires removing misc keywords that in most cases I don't want to keep and clutter up the panel.

 

For example, I have 3 images selected each with a single keyword "dog", "cat" and "horse" respectively.

 

I want to add a common keyword "animal", eg so that the first image now has two keywords  "dog" and "animal".

 

The problem with the two methods above is that:

Metadata panel will remove the existing multiple keywords, replacing them with only "animal" in each image

File Info will either do the same (if all existing keywords are highlighted), or if adding the new keyword, combine everything into each image so that each one has "dog", "cat", "horse", and "animal".

 

Maybe I'm missing something obvious but it doesn't seem intuitive for what I would expect to be a common requirement.

 

Thanks
