You *never* have to click Special > Track Text Edits > (selection).  You 
never have to *click* any menu items.  Unplug your mouse for a few days 
and learn what a good friend the Alt key is.  You can curl your left 
thumb under to hold it down while you type any of the underlined letters 
in menu names, then release it and type any underlined letter in the 
submenu names.  Choosing something from Track Text Edits takes three 
keystrokes:

Alt + s, r, (underlined letter of selection)

I don't know how to make that menu into a persistent pod, but even if 
you manage that, you will be slower and less productive by clicking on 
it than if you just use the keyboard shortcuts for the menus.
