(I seem to be on a mild Leo roll at the moment...)

The Up/Down arrow keys, when focus is in the tree, seem by default to be 
bound to

goto-prev-visible
and
goto-next-visible

for navigating nodes. There are also similar commands

goto-prev-node
and
goto-next-node

There seem to be two differences between these sets of commands:

1) goto-X-visible navigates the tree "as seen". Whereas goto-X-node expands 
nodes as the tree is traversed.

Thus for most of the time. goto-X-visible makes most sense, I would think. 
However:

2) goto-X-visible changes the focus to the body after running!

This means that I can't press the Up key multiple times to move around in 
the tree, and causes me to have to use the mouse.

Is this intentional? It seems a bit weird. I would like a (core) command 
that allowed me to navigate the visible nodes of a tree using the Up and 
Down keys repeatedly. It doesn't seem unreasonable...

I had a look at the code for the different commands. There is a reference 
to 

    c.endEditing    # 2011/05/28: A special case.

But it is not clear to me that this is the cause of the difference.

I am a bit surprised that I have not seen this mentioned before - does 
everyone use the mouse, r something?

Thanks, J^n
