Since the only other plugin doing that is broken atm, that would be an AWESOME addition. ;)

After some quick testing, I found that a WP_Query as simple as this would do the trick:

$args = array(
    'post_type' => array( 'post' ),
    'posts_per_page' => -1,
    'cache_results'  => false,
    'update_post_meta_cache' => false,
);
$query = new WP_Query( $args ); var_dump($query);
foreach( $query->posts as $post ) {
    wds_set_media_as_featured_image( $post->ID, $post );
}

'posts_per_page' => -1, will overload and crash the server, considering sites with thousands of posts.

Would be easy enough to amend and utilize the offset parameter.
