Can you try doing a Shift+Tab? For me on Linux, if I hit Shift+Tab, it
immediately takes me to the "Amend last commit" option. Then I can press
space to select it and Tab again to get back to the commit message.
Also, since we are on this topic, how about making the "Amend last
commit" button a toggle instead? This would act as a "turn amend mode
on/off" button. Since "Amend last commit" and "New Commit" are mutually
exclusive, a single toggle to switch between those modes makes sense to
me.

Assuming the above works for you, do you still feel the need for a
dedicated binding for amends?
