Hi Mars,
In the QGIS settings, in the "Map Tools" tab there is a checkbox called
"Open feature form, if a single feature is identified". If you enable
this checkbox, the attribute editing form will appear immediately. It is
often also useful to combine this with "Top down, stop at first" setting
for the behavior of the "Identify" tool.
The reason why there is a tree and a form is, that in cases of multiple
hits (multiple features within the tolerance, drill down option) you
will get the tree (read only). From there you can open the form with a
right-klick.
Maybe there is room for improvements here, if you have concrete
suggestions.

Hi,
I put together a short vid clip to try and illustrate a possible? gui
enhancement to editing attribute values while selecting features from
the canvas with editing of that same feature active.

I have been editing road feature attribute values lately by
visually selecting roads that I know are now upgraded from
Gravel to Paved surfaces.
After editing a hundred of these features I started to wonder
if it would be possible for the Dev's to make a feature
enhancement to streamline the editing of feature attribute
values via Identify Results window.
IF this Clip is unclear please tell me, it's the first vid clip
I have done, and I have not figured out a way to visualize the
direct editing of values inside the Identify Results window.
Thanks!
Not sure if allowing the Identity values to be editable would produce
a conflict...
If it was a conflict or not possible this way, then perhaps,
double clicking a particular value could open an edit window for that
same specific value and active for editing, without having to scroll.
If not I'll just keep clicking away.
Thank you.
mars
