Something else that is a little bit more intuitive :)
I don't think I'd  be able to get my mother to remember that F2 is
rename - she does stuff like this rarely enough that it has to be pretty
obvious.

Maybe something like how MacOS does it, where you click the name, and a
second later it switches into rename mode?
