For me, one big usability shortfall on this note is that if I use the
mouse to create or edit a transaction, I can't use the mouse to submit
it.  There used to be an 'enter' (or similar) button on/near the new
transaction, that was removed.  Thus, the only way I know of to submit
a new/edited transaction is to press the enter key on the keyboard.

Now, the user is forced to do half the work with the mouse and half
with the keyboard, unless you use the kb shortcut.  This mostly
impacts times when I go back to a previous transaction to change
something that I can otherwise drive completely with the mouse, such
as the reconcile status, date, tags, etc.  Then I must get on the kb
to finish it...silly.

I'll try to find a support issue and vote on it.
