There is currently no one-liner but you could create a script to
generate the 150 server names and use the "Same type, same tags" form
on the Add Objects page. Something like:
perl -e 'for ($i=1; $i<=150; $i++) { printf("server%03d\n", $i); }'
server001
server002
...
server150
Then paste that in and click Go!
I did test this on the code in trunk with 150 server objects, and it
took a minute or two but completed.
