The quickest way to build a multi-line expression in Pro is with the keyboard: tab through the fields, enter the data, and use Space to 'Add Clause.' The problem comes after this happens: the 'Add Clause' button remains selected. I suppose this might be ok if you are working in such a way where you know the exact number of clauses you'll need, but that's an awful lot of cumulative shift+tabbing whatever way you put it. Ideally, the selection would remain in the row that is added (i.e. the And dropdown). Right now, you have to Shift+Tab 3 times just to get back to writing your expression. Extra keystrokes that add up to inefficiency.
