New AB has lost all high efficiency keyboard shortcuts to edit the selected contact.
- `Enter` (all OS) for default action of selected item, edit contact.
- `Alt+Enter` (Windows/Linux) and `Ctrl/Cmd+I` (all OS) - per-OS default shortcuts to edit the properties of a selected item.
Even double-click no longer triggers the default action, edit contact.
This is a usability regression.
Editing contacts now requires much more effort and attention:
- mouse: less convenient, needless mouse click on distant `Edit` button
- keyboard: (1x or 2x) `Tab`, `Enter`. Note: 2x Tab is required when reduced window width causes horizontal scroll bar on contact pane.
Worse, `Ctrl/Cmd+I` unexpectedly triggers `New Calendar Event`, which looks like a pretty unlikely workflow.
**STR:**
1. Open ("new") Address Book
2. Click to select contact A
3. Press keyboard shortcuts to edit the selected contact:
- `Enter` (all OS)
- `Alt+Enter` (Windows/Linux) or
- `Ctrl/Cmd+I` (all OS)
**Actual results:**
- nothing for `Enter` (all OS)
- nothing for `Alt+Enter` (Windows/Linux)
- `Ctrl/Cmd+I` (all OS) triggers `New Event` dialog
- nothing for double-click on contact
**Expected results:**
- Restore plain vanilla `Enter` shortcut for the selected item default action, edit contact.
- Restore plain vanilla `double-click` to edit contact.
- Restore convenience shortcuts for consistency with OS default shortcuts on the respective OS to edit the properties of an item (which imo prohibits using Alt+Enter and Ctrl/Cmd+I for anything else here even if we wanted).
