When I work with new images, I give them very often a description or titel. At the moment I have to
- select the picture
- select the metadata view
- make an entry and
- select the next image.
This is very time consuming. I would be much better if the tabular view can be edited. Than I could
- edit the titel entry
- press cursor down to get the next image and go on.
I don't want to discourage you, but this will not happen. Re-implementing all the logic that is in the Metadata Panel in the file window would cause a lot of work. And, what you see in the file window is not necessarily a metadata tag, you can also show combined tags, tags formatted or modified by variable functions etc.
Both the Metadata Panel and the Keyword Panel have a large number of productivity features. Do you know them all? For example, you can add/edit metadata in hundreds of files at the same time. Metadata Templates are also a great way to fill in mass data.
If you give each file an individual title, this will not solve your problem. But maybe something simple like a prev/next file button and keyword shortcut is all you need. I have something like that on my to-do list, but I cannot say when I will look into this.

It would be very helpful if there were a shortcut with which one could change the current image. In this case, one could stay in the Metadata panel.
Thank you
