According to the docstring of org-toggle-checkbox, the function can be
called on headlines:

,----
| If the cursor is in a headline, apply this to all checkbox items
| in the text below the heading, taking as reference the first item
| in subtree, ignoring drawers.
`----

When I call org-toggle-checkbox on the following entry...

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Test
 - [ ] Now
 - [ ] Not now
 - [ ] Later
 - Not yet
 - Never
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

...I get the following results...

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Test
 - [ ] Now
 - [X] Not now
 - [X] Later
 - Not yet
 - Never
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Then if I call org-toggle-checkbox on the headline again, nothing
happens. The two boxes remain checked.

Best,
Matt

Odd; this is not the behavior I get. I just tried on a structure and got
this cycling:
,-----
| * top
| ** next
| *** next
| - [x] item 1  --> [ ]  --> [x]
| - [ ] item 2  --> [ ]  --> [x]
| - [ ] item 3  --> [ ]  --> [x]
| - [ ] item 4  --> [ ]  --> [x]
`-----

So... it seems to be working for me, though I was not sure based on the
docstring whether "taking as reference the first item in subtree" meant it
would toggle the rest to be like it or everything to be the opposite of it.
It appears it's the latter definition.

Maybe provide your version? I'm using 7.4.

Not working for me: I can reproduce the behavior that Matt reported.

Org-mode version 7.4 (release_7.4.529.gb23d.dirty)
