I tried “add row” from the context menu, but couldn’t change the key, type, or value once the new row appeared.

“Add Row” adds a row, and leaves a combo box displayed for the key, with the text in the text field part selected. You have to click on the value to edit it, and AFAICT you don’t get to change the type for info.plist keys — they seem to be preset. I can’t tell if the mouse clicking has an accessibility equivalent, but it’s not obvious that it does.

It’d probably be easier to edit the raw text in TextEdit. You’d need to know the exact keys for the values you want to add. ATS keys are described here:

If it helps, if you can describe what setting you want, I can do it in Xcode and email you a text snippet to paste into TextEdit.

Alternatively, there is a plist editor app in the app store (PListinator). It’s not clear how accessible it is either, but from the way that the fields are highlighted in the screen shots, it looks like it might be usable with VoiceOver.
