Disable editing multiple items on a SharePoint List customized with PowerApps
End users are able to edit and save multiple items in bulk, using the default form on the side pane, bypassing the business logic that is built within PowerApps.
The request is to disable the Edit functionality or hide the Edit link when multiple items are selected in a SharePoint List customized with PowerApps.

Were there any updates on this from MS?

This was taken to Microsoft's attention through a support ticket and here is their final response:
"We have established that under the current programming there is not a way to suppress the “edit” option as you requested, and we submitted a request to have Microsoft expedite developers to modify a change in the design. Due to the nature of change, this would impact the business-critical functionality of multiple items edits to other customers." -

This is a issue, user can by mistake and deliberately bypass controls on a SP PowerApps form by simply selecting multiple records
