First only have one add button and one remove/revert button and make it act on the selected treeview (if the property treeview is focused, it creates a new property, if the channel trreview is selected it creates a new channel). The buttons would then be displayed as a toolbar on top of the two treeviews. However, having the same button for two different actions might be a bit weird and not easy to understand.
