[Qgis-user] Add New Records to Relation or Non-Spatial Table Using "Line Entry" (vs "Form Entry")

Great work to all who have been a part of improving the user's ability to customize input forms!

My question is about the way that new records are added to either a relation (created to handle a one to many relationship between two tables) or to a non-spatial table.  In either case, the attributes for the new record are input using the form (either the default one or one that's been customized by the user).  In my case, I would actually benefit by creating new records from the "table view."  Since the various widgets are available from the table view, I don't see a disadvantage for using this approach.  As is, I can modify existing records from the table view, but each time I create a new one, I must use the form to populate the attributes.

I have searched for a way to change this in the QGIS settings and project properties, but I am unable to find and available setting.  Can this behavior be changed?

Thanks!
