Well, the idea here is (and that's basically an assumption of mine, the
behavior is that way for longer than I work on the product) that the
"insertion row" is a "virtual" (n+1)'th row of our form, so pressing
"next" repeatedly lets you travel through all those n+1 records.

Whether or not this is a good user experience - phh. Personally, I never
considered it problematic. But my gut feeling is that's  question pretty
hard to decide.

Ciao
Frank
