direct edit behaviour on tree and diagram

Documentation on "Editing tree Items" precise that any alpha-numeric character key activate the edition of a tree item (https://www.eclipse.org/sirius/doc/user/trees/Trees.html#editing). 
So if I want to replace the name of my item with "toto", typing "toto" will just add "oto" to the name of the item before typing because the first letter just activate the direct edit.

It will be more pleasant to have the same behaviour than with diagrams, i.e. if I type a character, it replaces the name of the item by this character. 
In this way, if I type "toto",  the item's name will be replaced by "toto".

Steps to reproduce:
* Open a tree with directEdit capability
* Select an element of the tree
* Type "toto" then "oto" is added to the item name ->KO

Behavior of direct edit tools in Table dialect should also be checked.
