[x] I checked for similar existing requests (both open and closed) before posting.
[x] My request is generic, other users may benefit from it too.
Proposal
The card for the master entity should list optionally all areas with a state different from the master entity.
For each of the listed areas it should be possible to switch to the state of the master from the card.
Additional info
Switching an area to the master card state could be done by simply tapping the area name. Without a prompt (popup) this is probably a bit surprising. So a dedicated switch button is IMHO a better choice.
For setups with many areas a button may be added to the card that switched all areas at once.
Optionally this button does not switch the state of an area to the armed state of the master if the area is already armed. Eg if the master is in "armed home" and the area is in "armed away" the area will not change its states. OTOH if it were "disarmed" it would switch to "armed home".
