To manage multiple fields, hold down the Ctrl key (for PC), or the Command ⌘ key (for Mac) to multi-select fields. You can also press Ctrl + A or ⌘ + A to select all fields.
A menu will appear at the top that will allow you to manage the multiple fields you selected. You can Duplicate, Require, Hide, or Delete them as needed.

The Form Builder also offers a custom Context Menu which allows more options when managing fields.

There's an annoying bug with this menu: if you click and drag to select a bunch of controls, the menu appears, but as soon as you release the mouse button the menu disappears. Ctrl-click to select multiple items works and the menu stays open, but this somewhat non-intuitive behaviour of drag select should be cleaned up one way or the other.
