Hi Andrew, mostly the commands involve creating new objects. Most things involving changing just attributes instead of creating entirely new objects are scripts instead of commands.

You can set up a shortcut key to trigger the same thing as clicking on the object name in the properties panel by this:
script: /* Edit object name */ var pp = moi.ui.propertiesPanel; if (pp.show && pp.numSelectedObjects > 0) { pp.editName(); }
