Feature request: being able to edit attribute value in attribute editor by pressing enter and being able to navigate with keyboard

Steps to reproduce:

  • open Inkscape
  • open the attribute editor
  • edit some attribute value of some node
  • press enter
  • press enter again

What happened?

When you're finished editing the attribute you press enter. But if you want to re-edit it, you can't press enter again, instead, you have to use the mouse and click on the attribute value. There's also no navigation possible to the next attribute with keyboard up/down arrows or tab.

What should have happened?

Being able to use arrow keys and tab to switch attributes and being able to press enter as many times as you like to edit, finish, re-edit, finish, etc. so that you don't have to use the mouse.

Inkscape Version and Operating System:
