The ability to change the paragraph style of multiple text items via right-click/shortcut is an absolutely amazing addition. It would be ideal if I were able to commit the dialogue with cmd-enter (that’s ctrl-enter on windows, similar to committing custom text). This way I could hit enter, type the name of the style (or the first letters thereof), enter, cmd-enter to press ok.

+1 for this! there are a number of other dialogues that don’t let you confirm with the keyboard either – such as copy staff spacing, manual staff visibility. It would be great if cmd-Enter were rolled out uniformly!
On the paragraph styles box — when i open it, i still have to click the text box with the mouse in order to use the keyboard to type in the first letters of the new style I want. @klafkid how do you avoid this? Dev Team – would it be possible to fix this dialogue so the text box is already active with the keyboard when it is opened?
As I have written, it’s enough for me to hit enter.
oh yes… ! (sorry, ignore the last bit of my previous post, Dev Team…

At the very least, it should be possible to press TAB to move the highlight from the menu to the OK button.

On my Mac, I find that if I have Keyboard navigation activated on the Keyboard pane in System Settings, I can Tab through each control in the Change Paragraph Style dialog. (This won’t work in every dialog, e.g. it won’t work in the Manual Staff Visibility dialog; some dialogs are implemented using a different UI framework that does not – at the moment anyway – provide native support for this standard keyboard navigation.)
