Test Cases - Replicate the command bar below the Test Steps

Usability Suggestion:

 

While in a single test case, it would be useful to replicate the command bar (Insert Step, Insert Link, Refresh, Clone, Import, Delete Step, etc.) below the list of test steps as well as above.  I am frequently editing one step toward the bottom of many, and then need to scroll up to hit the "insert step" button, then scroll back down to find the new step where I can resume editing.

 

Seems like a low-effort, easy-return task to me.

Thanks Chad, I've passed it on.

In the meantime, there is a right-click context menu option as well.

That lets you insert a  step from anywhere.

Thanks David.  That's really helpful for inserting steps in the middle.  The only use case it doesn't capture is when you've saved the last step in a long run, and then discover you need one more step at the end.  It's only a minor inconvenience at that point, but you need to either go to the top, or insert before the last step, then drag-and-drop the last two steps into their correct order.
