Is there a way to navigate through a formula's precedents, jumping from one to the next?

It's very useful to be able to press CTRL+[ in order to navigate to the first precedent/reference in a formula. (And then to press F5 to jump back to the formula.) However, what if a formula has multiple precendents/references, including some or all that appear on a different worksheet? It would be super useful to be able to continue to navigate through a formula's precedents, jumping from one to the next, in the order that the appear in the formula. Is there a way to do this?
 

Excel Facts

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
For this, I always use the Formula Ribbon> Evaluate formula.

Reason being, I don't care to look at the precedents, I actually only care about what each piece of the formula returns. You could always use the Trace Precedents as well on the same tab.
