This is fine with me, though I could see other people annoyed if their focus changes.  Perhaps a right solution is to just keep keyboard focus where it was on the prior image.   Including the caption of course.  Or is that what the 2nd patch does?.  There are some keyboard shortcuts to actual letters (like 'a' for zoom, digits for rotate etc.)

In general, if you are going to have text boxes like the caption and search box, having ordinary letters as action keys when focus is on "the picture" is going to cause some confusion, as people type and find themselves accidentally rotating or vice versa (not as harmful.)   Keyboard focus should perhaps be less subtle (now it's a cursor and a thickening of the border of the comment box.
