I've been on this list since 1999 (maybe 98?).  I WROTE the original
business features (in the very early 2000s).  Don't get me wrong.  Plenty
of people ask how to post a single payment to multiple invoices.  The
interface has always been confusing and somewhat non-intuitive.  Recent
changes have improved it, but I suspect it could be made easier.

Posting to multiple customers --- no, that question is not at all common. 
You're probably not the first, but it's so rare I think I can count them
on my fingers (probably even on one hand) over the past two decades.
