Use keyboard while selecting a style

I am going to discuss a pretty common problem that could have been addressed with a simple quality of life improvement: I have a very extensive collection of styles / presets, emulating various film stocks. To preview the style, I have to hover the mouse. The mouse control would have been acceptable for a handful of styles, but it is a pain in (you know where) when the number of styles approaches 50. It takes a lot of scrolling and fussing with the mouse. I am asking for a keyboard control while the styles panel is active: ideally something like up/down arrow to preview current style and something like a '+' to apply the style. With this type of UI, style browsing would become much quicker... Please note that this feature cannot be replaced with style shortcuts because: 1. Style shortcuts make sense only for a handful of styles. 2. Furthermore style shortcuts may not be used to preview the style.
Current workaround
There is no workaround. As I mentioned style shortcuts do not replace this feature.

    Most C1 or Light Room users have and use more than a few presets / styles. It is pretty common and normal to have tens of not hundreds of presets. This is why current UI concept that solely relies on muse interface for browsing large collections doesn't represent the needs of most users.
