Can't add barcodes to a bucket in batch

Bug Description
When you're in the "pending items" screen for an item bucket, where you can scan barcodes, you can't choose a file to add multiple barcodes like you can in item status.
When you're in item status, you can only add items to an item bucket that you own, not to a shared bucket.
These two things put together make it difficult to add a list of items to a shared bucket when you have only a list of barcodes, not a stack of physical items. In this case, our public services manager had discarded several books that were damaged and we were trying to delete them but preserve the information in an item bucket for our collection managers. We managed to do it, but what I discovered is that if my item cataloger wants to add a list like that to a shared bucket for me to review, she has to manually copy and paste each barcode into it.
Just putting it out there in case someone else has had the same or similar issue and found a workaround I don't know about. My solution was to use item status and just download and email the .csv file rather than using the shared bucket, which worked but was less than ideal.
