I can do it from Source/Record mode, at least in 5.5.3. All that's necessary is to use a selection mode to select multiple clips. There is a delay, and a bit of beach ball while it thinks, but it works.

You have to have the effects editor open (so you are in effects mode) when you
select the multiples. Then double clicking an effect will apply to all selected.
