Change value of multiple notes
I was trying to change the value of multiple notes (ie. on downbeat) on the same bars position but on different staves/instruments. Unless Im doing something wrong (which is quite possible) MS2.1 doesn't change those values. Bug? Future features?

I'd call it a missing feature that is it not possible to change duration on a list-selection of notes.
Doing this for multiple notes would be easy for MuseScore if you can guarantee there is no more than one note *per staff* selected. Otherwise, you run into the basic problem of guessing the desired behavior would be if the notes would overlap after the change - the reason we don't currently have a "double note values" command operating on a range. That's something we do need to solve eventually. But in theory, we could make it work easily if there is no possibility of overlap.

Well, that would be great …
You can change all the notes by the same amount on all the staves you want as long as you ctrl-click all notes after the first.

Did you try? I did and it didn't work.

I click a note, and ctrl-click a few other notes, press the up arrow and they move up 1/2 step, ctrl-shit-arrow the move diatonically, ctrl-arrow and the move an octave. They all have to move the same amount. What does note work is pressing a note name such a C or duration such a 4. What also works for re-pitching the same as above is click a note, shift click any other note and all selected notes work the same as with ctrl-click.

pitch works, yes, but duration does not and that was the OP's question

Exactly …
