Such an operation probably wouldn't make a lot of sense due to 
concurrent access on the collection.

What you can do as a client to reduce transfer sizes is to first query 
minimal information of all records (eg just the etags) and then use 
batches to retrieve the actual content in steps.

This would probably be the thing being done by offline oriented clients 
anyway.
