Hello Rockbox-Devs, I vote for option #4 with some extra 'eye candy'...
UP/DOWN selects items in dir LEFT exists dir no change RIGHT enters dir or applies and exits NAVI (a.k.a. select) makes change but does not exit dir An indicator of the current setting (like the checkmark) in addition to the inverted line based on where your current selection is would be benefitial. The checkmark should 'jump' to the inverted line and pause for a tiny amount of time when NAVI (or RIGHT) is pressed. This would be very clear to the newbies IMO. Also this way (at least on an iRiver H1x0) one could do everything with just the thumb.

So, which option do we go for? OR, do we add an option to allow all 4 (or 3 or 2) of them and just argue about which shuold be default?
