Hi,

You could argue that A (as in "amend") makes quite an intuitive hotkey.
But personally I'm also leaning towards CTRL/CMD+E. The ALT+(letter)
combination is used to open a menu, for instance ALT+R opens
"Repository", ALT+E opens "Edit", etc. That's the behaviour on
Windows, anyways. So the hotkeys may seem a bit "mixed up" when
ALT+(some letter) opens the corresponding menu but ALT+A does
something quite different.
