The "Submit" button is a bit dangerous that
way. For most changes you can't thoroughly review it without
trying it
out, which means loading it into your local workspace. For a
bugzilla patch
you can paste it directly into the navigator so it really
can't be beat
(about four keystrokes for the whole process to copy/paste the
patch).
Whether you use UI or command line, Gerrit is a bit more work
there.
I've been meaning to write something up about this but haven't had
the time. If you use the commandline there's a handy python script
[1] that makes the Gerrit experience a little easier.
The gist of it is that it's a bunch of shortcuts to working with the
Gerrit workflow. For example "git review -d <change#>" will
pull down a change and create a local branch for it automatically.
No more copy/pasting the long commands that Gerrit provides.
Maybe something similar can be integrated into Egit?
