F7 and <ctrl>F6 from Search/Update Menu

In Q&A, when you hit F7 from the result set, it saves the existing record and present you a search form.  So basically it is <F10> + <F7> - annoying warning. In Sesame, first you have to save the record, for that you have to open Navigation Menu every time and choose save record, (not Save and Advanced which is equivalent to F10) and then hit F7 else you will have to deal with warning messages. If you hit F10 and F7, still you will have to deal with warning message. I believe, this could have been a lot simpler.

We are also used to find a record in search, and from search/Update <ctrl> F6, that takes you to Add form, <Shift F5> will Ditto all the fields. Make whatever little change you have to make and you have the another record added.  Ditto <Shift F5> does not work in new form in add mode in Sesame but it will work in new form in update mode.

One can place a command button on the form and @SelectTreeItem to just to save the record. Will this be the same as NotifyForm (0) ?
