Put your mouse away. Tab to the Add Metadata button, press Enter, select Author, now count the tabs you need to press in order get back to the tree to enter an author name… in Windows I count nine, ditto in an elderly Linux Mate.

If the actions that the buttons provide were in the tree context menu, I could ignore the buttons.

How do you launch the context popup menu without using a mouse? I thought the idea was you wanted a solution that was keyboard only. Wouldn't assigning shortcuts to the buttons be better?

As I said, your "irritant" does not happen on other platforms? Did you ever try right arrow to expand it followed by a second right arrow? Does that work?
