What's the Problem?

The default files explorer enables us to rename the next file by pressing the Tab key while renaming. By pressing Shift + Tab, we can rename the file before the one currently being renamed. This is a very useful feature when renaming many files located in the same folder.

While not renaming, the tab key could also be set to navigate the selection between files, so acting like arrow up/down currently does.

Solution/Idea

Add the shortcuts with Tab and Shift + Tab to select next/previous file in renaming mode.

Alternatives

An alternative would be to add the possibility to rename the next file by pressing the down arrow, and the previous one with the up arrow.
