I think it would be nice if the Synchronize view was usable by keyboard alone.

I just tried with 3.1M4 and found that even if I could navigate the tree in the
Synchonize Panel with the arrow keys (and return sent me to another panel), I
could not express my intent to Commit, Override and Update or any other entries
in the Right-Mouse-Click menu without rightmouseclicking.

Operations such as commit/update/etc can be called from a context menu
(Shift-F10). You can even change view layout and mode in/out/conflicts and
flat/tree/compressed from view menu (Ctrl-F10)

However you can start synchronization on currently selected working set or
switch to another working set that is already pinned to Synchronize view (there
is an icon with drop down list on Synchronize view toolbar).

Also you can't turn "Change Sets" mode on and off without mouse.

PS: Michael, I do believe that 72850 had more details.

We'll make sure to look in bug 72850 when this bug is addressed to make sure 
we've covered all the cases. Unfortunately, unless priorities change, there 
isn't time in 3.1 to address this issue.
