to clarify:
5) In the "X" edit box on the tool bar, enter a new X value.
6) Press the Tab key
activates the y-coordinate field
7) Click on the drawing
then triggers the change of y coordinates of all selected nodes

To avoid the collapse of all selected nodes into the same x,y location don't <Tab> to the other field if you only want to change one coordinate of the selected nodes. Both coordinate entry fields act more like buttons when multiple nodes are selected: they trigger the change on 'activate/deactivate' not on 'enter new value + return'.
