Description TAB 2014-08-07 20:57:18 UTC 
Open a spreadsheet, hit ^f3, name cell A1 'Xyz', hit Enter; name had been added (because Add button was highlighted). Now, no button is highlighted: hitting Enter does nothing; hitting Esc closes the window, but cancels the addName operation --annoying, unless user really meant to cancel.
	Suggested enhancement: OK button should be highlighted after a name has been added, so that the user can save the operation and close the window by hitting Enter. User can always make another choice by clicking Add (to add another name) or Cancel.

If you would to do it with keyboard, hit twice on Tab key.
So Enter button is now enable and can be hit.

OK,it's a work-around, not obvious.
This is not a serious defect, but easy to fix. The original suggestion still stands.
