--- Comment #3 from alexxcons <acs82 at gmx.de> ---
For 1. In the bulk renamer pick "Numbering", "only Name", and e.g. write "Me at
the beach" as text. That's it.
For 2. same as 1.
For 3. I dont agree. Why you think it is easier ? How a user should know that
the tab-key does such a thing ? It is not very obvious.

Per default rename in thunar is bound to "F2". You can change that by modifying
the file:
~/.config/Thunar/accels.scm
You can change the key with e.g:
(gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/ThunarStandardView/rename" "r")

"Tab" currently is used for switching between toolbar, files-window and sidebar
... if you want to make use of "Tab" for renaming, you first somehow need to
remove the default bind. ( Did not find how that can be done so far .. but
that's a different issue )

What  could be improved IMO: In the rename dialog a button "rename all" could
be added which opens the bulk-renamer with the settings from 1.
