I'd like to be able to set a hotkey that enters edit mode for the currently selected symbol. I checked in the shortcuts menu but couldn't see it there. Is it possible to create a shortcut for the Edit Symbol command?

From my experience you cannot create a shortcut for the edit symbol. You can view the symbols in the Symbols Panel
by going to Window > Symbol
and double clicking on any symbol there to edit:
You could always review the Adobe's documentation for scripting and see if you could develop a workaround.
You can double click a symbol that you've placed in the document.
- To close it, you can double click outside the symbol or press esc key
- It works just about the same as double clicking a group or a mask.

Yeah, I disabled double clicking because I found I would exit isolation mode when I didn't want to. I was hoping to replace all the double clicking functionality with keyboard shortcuts.– BrynnDec 23, 2015 at 15:59
