Two clicks for entering script editor (and back to sheet mode) in version November 2024?

I'm testing November 2024 edition of Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows (right now only the desktop version) and I'm kind of in shock over how to enter the script editor - a significant change from previous version May 2024.

Please tell me there's a workaround for this? Perhaps an undocumented keyboard shortcut to switch between them?

Now we really need a keyboard shortcut to toggle between script editor and sheet editing. I have submitted an "idea" in the Ideation area that you can vote for: Keyboard shortcut to switch between script editor and sheet
