Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am mostly dumping Japanese discs so I have to set region (easy using keyboard cursors or letter keys, followed by space bar) and languages (easy to open and select the row of the language, but I cannot check the box using keyboard)
I try to enter all submission data using only keyboard, resorting to mouse slows things down and makes me more error prone.
Describe the solution you'd like
Some way to check the language box.
Maybe I need educating in the finer operation of Windows?
Describe alternatives you've considered
Use mouse cursor to check it, this is prone to error as my mouse is controlled by touch surface which will sometimes scroll the languages list.

+1 to this :)
I don't know of the technical solution, but the typical handling of checkbox items in drop-downs that I've seen in most other applications, is that you can type the letter or name of the language to direct to it (this functions just fine), and then use spacebar to "select" / check the box. This particular item would be helpful for me as well.

I've tried making stuff like this work a LOT. I just flat out don't know enough things about the UI framework to figure this stuff out. I'm marking this as Help Wanted and here's hoping someone in the community can take a stab at it.

+1 Would be nice for sure.

If this isn't natively supported with the WPF and WinForms code that is already in use, then unfortunately I can't tackle this one.
