Adding new entries to an abbreviation dictionary is a little clunky at the moment. When clicking add row, the interface does not update to show the new row nor is it ready for you to start typing into it. After adding the row, you must manually scroll to the bottom, select it, and type your entry. It's also pretty difficult to navigate with a keyboard: instead of just tabbing past the last row or hitting enter to get a new row, I have to tab over to 'add row,' hit space, and then shift-tab back to the rows, where again, the new row is not selected -- the row above the new row is selected, so you then have to tab down again. Once again, that's tab, space, shift-tab, tab; and really, just 'tab' would be nice especially when you have a lot to enter at once. Would also be consistent with other applications and give users an intuitive experience.
