Add hotkeys on source attachment screen
Power keyboard request! Please add hot keys to the source attachment screen. IMO, the big one to add is ALT-A to Attach the record. This allows me to click compare or names with the mouse on my right hand and hit alt-a with my left hand to attach records. I can attach records at least 2-3x faster this way.
You could take it further and do ALT-W (or something similar on the left hand) that would move all the new data entries from the left to the right without having to click each one. For census records this usually moves 2 fields over. Then an Alt-A and it saves it. This is fast. (Trying to make sure to standardize the location which the system remembers the right one after the first person in the group is added.)
I have written a tampermonkey script to do this but I'm always nervous if FS changes the programming that it may misbehave. There are other pages hotkeys would be great.

I wrote some greasemonkey scripts for other sites, but haven't got around to doing it here. It'd be nice to have a repository of those available. The one I want to tackle is having one button to toggle open all sources -- the "detail" view is insufficient since it doesn't show the related sources.
