Comment (by bhoogterp):

 Definately could be a plugin...  Just thought it might be a |trivial|
 modification...  The functionality is duplicated via clicking on the
 "Spam" comments from the Dashboard and then clicking "Empty Spam", and
 then clicking back to the Dashboard.  3.4.2 with no recent comments  but
 plenty of spam on the dashboard does not have an empty button (or
 anything).  If function of Akismet is suggested that review of all spam is
 recommemded first, I would reconsider, but I haven't found any legitimate
 comments picked up by Akismet.

 Ultimately, it would be a duplicate of the same link on the Comments page,
 to empty all spam without reviewing, and it would be different in that it
 would (hopefully) redirect back to the dashboard rather than an empty spam
 folder, but the point would simply be to save a few steps towards keeping
 the spam clutter out of things like the database backups, for instance.
