Rotate dialog box should have value highlighted by default, or be highlighted by Tab
When you press R then Return on the keyboard to pull up the Rotate dialog box, the value of the angle should be highlighted by default like it used to be.
Formerly when I wanted to rotate an object at a specific angle, like 122°, I would type R - <Return> - 122 - <Return>
Now to do the same thing I have to type R - <Return> - <Tab> - <Shift-Tab> - 122 - Return – a much more cumbersome keystroke combination.
At the very least, the first Tab should highlight the value, NOT the Preview checkbox.

I second this! I want to click the rotate tool and just start typing a value, rather than have to then aim to select the value box and then type my value.

Illustrator 2020. Agree, it was simple but effective. If you don't use key shortcuts then the simple click to open dialogue box should have the default value highlighted like it used to be.
