This is finally available in Beta 30.6.0.75
When you replace a linked image in Illustrator, you can now choose to apply that change everywhere the image appears in your file (even across multiple artboards and repeated layouts).
How in works:
- Select one or more links in the Links panel and click Relink
- In the file picker, note the 'Replace:' dropdown below the options
- Choose 'All Links (N)' to replace every instance of that file in the document
- Choose 'Selected Links (N)' to replace only the instances you selected
- Pick the replacement file and click Place
Try it and leave a comment if it works and it works like you need it to.
Also, please don’t forget to upvote this request if you are interested — Display copies of links' duplicates as instances, like in InDesign

This feature is way over do and badly needed. How is one expected to collaborate with other users on complex Illustrator projects without relative paths? I thought this would have been fixed 10 years ago.

Re-linking multiple images at a time would be a great time saver when you inevitably unlink all your files because a folder moved or you switch to a new computer. This is also broken when re-linked to a CC Library.
