Short description of error
Most properties in blender can be changed for all selected objects by holding ALT while changing it. However, this doesn't work for all properties. For instance, the 'Rig Type' property in the Rigify add-on doesn't work. We can make it work by right click and selecting 'Copy to selected' but it should be possible with the ALT shortcut for consistency.

Steps to reproduce
While in Pose Mode select multiple bones
go into Bone Properties -> Rigify Type -> Rig type
try to change the Rig Type for all of them by holding ALT

It seems the interface handler only handle float and integer types for now, while the operation handle all property types, and this is not specific to Rigify. So support is not available in the code and this is not really a bug.
But the UI module may want to keep that as a to-do, so I will wait for their decision.
